[Sportsandrec] Olympic Training Center Tours?

[Lori M. Miller]

The rings are at least 5 or 6 feet in diameter and made out of metal of some 
sort.They are sitting on a concrete wall that is maybe four feet high? They 
intertwine together and are really neat. It is up to you to have your pic 
taken there.

And if you're in the mood to shop, the Spirit store has a little bit of 
everything from soccer balls to clothing and everything inbetween with 
various US teams to just team USA.
