Poll: Should San Diego Enter Race to Host the 2024 Olympic Games?

U.S. Olympic Committee has final say, but is considering bids for 2022 or 2024. We have climate.

A day after watching the London Olympics Opening Ceremony, a competing in a local swim and road race said: “Coronado should bid for the next Olympics.”  Well, maybe not the Crown City, but how about San Diego? (Or add Tijuana as some have suggested.) We hosted several sports in 1984, including equestrian events. The U.S. Olympic Committee says it’s considering a bid for the 2024 Games. So picture this: Skeet shooting in Santee. Triathlon in La Jolla. And water polo in Coronado. After London's rain, how about a Games with America’s Finest Climate?

This is a great event. Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped make it a fun and enrichingRead More experience for my family. We need to get the word out about this helpful event in Coronado for the future. It was a learning experience for children and adults alike. I feel better now with my daughter riding her bike on the busy streets of Coronado. Thanks again to all of the Police Officers, Boy Scouts, Girls Scouts and local volunteers.
