Since the last time we’ve met, I’ve been watching a lot of this Winter Olympics — dozens of sports that I never knew existed two weeks ago have now consumed my entire life. As a proud Korean, I am so excited that my native country is hosting these Winter games. The point is, I think the Olympics could be an incredible business opportunity to put Ithaca on the map. The beauty of Ithaca is that our volatile weather could allow for us to host both the Summer and Winter games, but let’s be real — we’re not at Summer Olympics status yet. But don’t let that disappoint you — I would argue that Ithaca’s landmarks are better suited to the Winter games anyways.
