LIMA 2019 ORGANIZING COMMITTEE PRESENTS ITS BALANCE TO THE PERUVIAN CONGRESS

Less than 58 days away from the opening ceremony of the Pan American Games, the Lima 2019 Organizing Committee presented the management balance of the different functional areas to Congress representatives.

The meeting was led by Carlos Neuhaus, Lima 2019 executive director, and attended by congress representative Milagros Salazar, president of the Youth, Education and Sports Committee, representatives Luciana León, Gladys Andrade, Guido Lombardi and Marco Miyashiro, who received reports on the progress made by the Organizing Committee for the Pan American and Parapan American Games.

Carlos Neuhaus accompanied by Alberto Valenzuela, operations manager, and Juan Antonio Silva, communications, commercial and marketing manager, made a presentation about the torch relay, beginning on July 2 in Mexico and as off July 4 it will travel across Peru. He also revealed that the start of ticket sales beat the record in its first days thanks to the people's expectation.

He also talked about the transportation of about 10,000athletes and technical officials between the Pan American and Parapan American Village and the competition venues, as well as the security to be implemented in the Games, including 20,000 agents of the National Police of Peru, the Armed Forces, and private security.

After the meeting, the Congress members toured the Lima 2019 main venues, starting with VIDENA. They visited the Bowling Center, where they played in the 24 modern lanes. This stage has been considered one of the bests in the continent. They also visited the warm-up athletics track, which has already been delivered to the Federation.

They also visited the operational modern Athletics Stadium, which recently hosted the South American Athletics Championship. The delegation visited the Aquatic Center, the Velodrome and the Sports Center 3, where outdoor and finishing works were carried out for the delivery of the venues in the next days.

The Congress representatives praised the efforts of the Lima 2019 organization and the status of the new venues that were built for the Lima 2019 Games. They expressed their confidence in the successful delivery of the multi-sports event that will begin in 58 days.
