EVENT ENHANCEMENTS

Athlete Check-In: (Town & Country Hotel)
Grand Exhibit Hall
Wednesday August 3: 6pm - 9pm
Thursday August 4: 10am - 9pm
Friday August 5: 9am – 4pm

Athlete Check-In is the first impression the athletes have of the 2011 State Games of America. We make our Check-In very exciting for the athletes. They walk in to an area decorated with banners and flags. They go to the table designated for their sport. At Check-in, they will receive a credential and goody bag full of items such as: memorabilia from local professional sports teams, snacks, and discounts at local attractions. They are given specific directions to their sport venue and Opening Ceremonies instructions.

Opening Ceremonies: (Qualcomm Stadium)
The ceremonies begin at 6:30pm and the Athlete Village opens at 4:30 pm in parking lot L1.
Opening Ceremonies is a truly spectacular event that athletes will remember for a lifetime. The athletes are amazed when they find out they get to walk on the field at Qualcomm Stadium. The estimated attendance is 30,000, the largest ever for a State Games of America. The Opening Ceremonies has always been the highlight of the Games. We are looking forward to having the State Games of America Opening Ceremonies be an even more spectacular event than in the past.

Athlete Party: (Coronado Tidelands Park) - SOLD OUT
This is a time to celebrate with friends and family at the Athlete Party to be held at the beautiful waterfront Coronado Tidelands Park on Saturday. Athletes enjoy a casual evening of fun, food, music and entertainment. The party will have a DJ, pizza or burger, salad, drinks, dessert and lots of games.

Championship Banners:
In addition to Gold, Silver & Bronze medals, we will award a 2011 State Games of America National Championship Banner to Team Champions in certain sports. This is a Championship Banner that you can display at your home practice facility.

Athlete Credentials:
Each athlete will receive a beautiful credential showing that they are an athlete in the 2011 State Games of America. This small token goes a long way in making every athlete feel special and in offering a keepsake that they will cherish. This credential will allow them access to every venue.
