Games Cologne's "Office Angels" honored

Gay Games VIII has been blessed with a particularly friendly and effective set of volunteers. Some have been working for the last few days or weeks, while others have spent months and years working for Games Cologne. Among the latter are those Games Cologne calls its "Office Angels", who have been solving problems and providing a helping hand to participants, FGG representatives, and just about anybody who needed support. These men and women were honored by Games Cologne by being asked to carry the FGG flag at the closing ceremony handover to Cleveland-Akron.

In this photo we can see Susanne Schneider, Carina Van Hall, and Rob Smitherman, all who I can confirm based on personal experience have been unfailingly helpful and friendly, even in trying circumstances.
