The United States has hosted the Olympic Games a record eight times. St. Louis, Los Angeles (twice) and Atlanta have been the sites of the summer Games while Lake Placid (twice). Squaw Valley and Salt Lake City in 2002 have welcome the winter Games.
Ten U.S. cities have entered the process to become the candidate city for the 2010 Olympic Games which will be selected by the U.S. Olympic Committee Board of directors. The U.S. city will then face competition from around the world with the International Olympic Committee making the final decision.
The 10 cities have until the spring of 2000 to prepare their final bids for the U.S.OC. Following site evaluations and the XLXth Olympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City, Utah (Feb. 8—24, 2002), the U.S. Olympic candidate city will be elected in the fall of 2002 at the U.S.OC’s Board of Direction meeting. The closing date for all worldwide candidate cities to submit bids to the International Olympic will be in the winter of 2003. The IOC will then select the 2010 host city in the fall of 2005.
"Our work can begin in the fall of 2002, allowing us to have a great bid and saving bid cities a tremendous amount of money by shortening the expensive international campaign", said Anita DeFrantz, an IOC vice president.
The U.S. Olympic Committee is also in the process of identifying a U.S. candidate city for the 2007 "Pan American Games". The United States has previously hosted this event for countries in North, Central and South America in Chicago (1959) and Indianapolis (1987).
The timeline approved by the U.S.OC Board for the cities registered and bidding to become the U.S. candidate city for the 2007 Pan American Games-Houston; Raleigh, N.C.; San Antonio, Texas; and south Florida-calls for each city’s final bids to be submitted to the U.S.OC by September 1998. Following site evaluations, the U.S.OC Board will select the U.S.A’s 2007 bid city in the spring of 1999. The Pan American Sports Organization (PASO) will select the host city in 2002.
U.S.OC Executive Director Dick Schuhz explained that the U.S.OC’s objectives in setting up the timelines for the bid cities were: to maintain focus on the mission, pursue strategic initiatives, complete the Pan American Games bids before the Olympic Games bids, complete the Salt Lake City Olympic Winter Games and effort, and to then launch an international bid off the success of Salt Lake City.
