Sochi Olympics mascot will be chosen by referendum

A nationwide referendum will be held in Russia to  choose  a  symbol for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Sochi 2014 Organizing Committee President Dmitry Chernyshenko said.

“As  for  choosing  an  Olympic mascot, it will be done three years before the event in compliance with the rules. A mascot will be selected through  a  nationwide  referendum.  We  will  ask the entire country to choose an   image   that   will  symbolize  the  Sochi  Olympic  Games,” Chernyshenko said at a presentation of the event’s brand on Tuesday.

    Hi Rob! No Alex writes on this blog – I’m Erik 😉

    Thanks, but I don’t really get any traffic to this blog from Technorati, so I don’t know if that really helps with anything.
