Official “Thank You” Message From Chicago 2016 Olympic Bid Delegation

Thanks to all of the supporters of Chicago 2016 in the city and around the world!

Thanks also to the International Olympic Committee for giving us the opportunity to compete against these world-class cities on the world stage.

The city and nation united behind our bid.

The international competition raised Chicago’s profile as a world-class city.

Countless businesses and philanthropic organizations helped stage events that inspired young people to engage in sport.

And the bid’s legacy organization, World Sport Chicago, will continue to reach thousands of youth in the years to come.

As a direct result of the bid, more than 300,000 Chicago youth have already begun to realize the benefits of the Olympic Movement through activities and educational programs.
