Foreign Coach Saved

News December 31st, 2007

I saw the headline Volunteers “save” foreign coach and had to check it out. How was the coach saved? Was he pulled from the path of an oncoming train? Dragged away from a violent undertoe while swimming? Did he require an urgent transfusion of a rare blood type after a tragic training accident?

Bulgarian coach Koeva Mariela enjoyed a day to be thankful on Wednesday as volunteers recovered his lost folder at the rhythmic gymnastics Olympic try-out in Beijing.

“Thank you, thank you very much!” Mariela said to Wang Xiaoxiao, one of the volunteers at the Rhythmic Gymnastics International tournament.

At 10:00 am on Wednesday, a black folder was found by a volunteer in the hall of Renmin University, one of the training venues for the Olympic trial.

There were a lot of important files in it, including official documents, agendas, accreditation cards and meal tickets.

Across town, a foreign English teacher was saved as well, when a group of first-grade students found her box of stickers and carried it to her office.
