Volunteers

With your help the EuroGames will become reality!

As you already know, we want to make the EuroGames Barcelona 08 more than just a sports competition....we want to bring together all those – gays, lesbians, transexuals, bisexuals, heterosexuals – who believe in diversity. To do this we’re going to need help in the form of volunteers... Volunteers need not be limited to just the gay community but to anyone who wants to help. The whole EuroGames Barcelona 08 ethos is based on openness and equality among people, hence everyone is welcome!

Barcelona is the first city in southern Europe to host an event of this kind. We will show that we are an open and welcoming city...and you should be there! We want Barcelona to be a European sports capital, but of a type of sport that respects and welcomes everybody!

Come and make it possible! We need you!



4ta Jornada de Formación - Y llego la ultima! Print E-mail

4 han sido las jornadas de formación de voluntariado que se han realizado en los últimos meses en el Albergue Mare de Déu de Montserat. Pero esta ultima con una particularidad especial, después de las ya tradicionales pruebas para conocernos y romper el hielo, el cafecito al aire libre, la foto de grupo.

La formación propiamente dicha, al final se añadieron algunos voluntarios de jornadas anteriores para ponerse al día de las últimas novedades de los EG y de paso, como el resto de los nuevos voluntarios, ir conociendo cada una de las áreas donde poder colaborar y a sus coordinadores.

Un pica-pica para poner el punto y final a las jornadas de formación de voluntariado y es que los juegos están a la vuelta de la esquina...

EG08 - 30º Cursa del Corte Ingles Print E-mail

Hello Volunteers:

On Sunday, May 18, the volunteers of EuroGames Barcelona 08 took part in
the Cursa del Corte Inglés, wearing our tight t-shirts and demonstrating
our sportsmanship to the people of Barcelona, attending to the press who
wanted to take our photos (we don’t know if they will be published
anywhere, but we hope so), running in front of dragons, roosters, baby
carriages, elderly athletes 101 years old, meeting everyone around us and
having a good time.

The EuroGames was mentioned at the start of the course, when we entered
in the Olympic Stadium, and of course at the finish line in Plaza
Catalunya, something which filled us with pride and satisfaction.

The boys of Barcelonagay took photos of us and we hope that they will
post them somewhere, as we want to be famous.

And at the end, a well-deserved rest and some Coca-Colas to re-energize
us.

We would like to thank all the volunteers that put on their trainers that
Sunday morning to spread the word that EuroGames Barcelona 08 is coming
soon to the city.

Hi dear volunteers!

As many of you already know, the Names Project onised the HIVvictims’ memorial at the Cathedral on Saturday 17th May. This event started the AIDS International Week of action. No doubt it was a day for reflection for the LGTB group in the fight against HIV.

Many associations from all over Spain got together in the event in order to advertise themselves and support the cause and we also just had to be there: EuroGames Barcelona 08 does have a stand in the venue.

Despite the threat of a dull rainy day, nobody wanted to miss the event, including the passers-by who were taking a Saturday morning stroll. Voices from Andalusia, Galicia, Madrid could be heard in the various stands run by the different associations in the venue.

A huge tapestry was made out of patches that read the names of some of the victims of this pandemic and a symbolic act was set up, with the readings of some of the victims’ names by some famous personalities (politicians, health officials from both state and local governement institutions) and by LGTB representatives. A EuroGames Barcelona 08 volunteer also took part in the event.

The morning event came to an end with the presentation of the slogan for the “Shout it out loud: stop AIDS” campaign and with a deafening whistling. What began as seeming chaos turned into a joyful samba, which was proof of the hope fostered by all those who fight against this evil every single day-

Without a doubt, this was a chance to make ourselves known to citizens, rather than to gain new volunteers. Still we managed to attract a few people from the various associations present who are interested in volunteering and do not want to miss this summer’s great event in Barcelona.

3ra Jornada de Formación - Number one worry: security checks Print E-mail



Badge, name, photo, introductions, orange juice and the rain got us started on the third training day for volunteers.

The newbies had a hard time….you probably know what we mean, yeah, you’ve been there too! Racking your brain to create an ad, a carafe-filling race, skiing on pebbles… Pep Escartin, member of the Honour Committee, conducted the session in the afternoon.

With his usual original and humourous touch, he introduced the different coordinators of volunteers, who told about what it meant for them to be part of this project.

The session came to an end with Joan Miró, the EuroGames president, who welcomed the 40 new just-trained volunteers.
