An Olympic Journey
On Thursday, David Cummings shared his enthusiasm for sport and the Olympics. Backed by a kaleidoscope of slides, David traced the history of the Olympic movement from ancient Greece, through the Victorian initiatives in Much Wenlock, through the modern revival in Athens in 1896, to London 2012. David's talk contrasted the ruins of the original site in Olympia with the spectacle of London's Olympics and Paralympics.
