WARM WELCOME TO INTERNATIONAL DELEGATIONS AT PARAPAN AMERICAN VILLAGE
The mayor of the Village welcomed the Ecuadorian, Nicaraguan and Venezuelan Para athletes, who were very impressed.
In just two days, the spirit of the Parapan American Games will light up the sky in Lima. The delegations are joining the most important multi-sports event in the continent, and the Para athletes feel at home as soon as they enter the Parapan American Village. In this context, a welcome ceremony was held for three countries: Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
The mayor of the Village, Giorgio Mautino, led the protocol act at the International Plaza of the Parapan American Village in the district of Villa El Salvador. The Para athletes of the Americas expressed their gratitude for this special moment that included a cultural show.
The Ecuadorian Para athlete, Roberto Carlos Chalá, valued Peruvians’ kindness. “We’re having a good time despite the cold (laughs), but we’re quickly adapting to the conditions. I want to leave a mark on my first Games and I’ve been working hard to win a medal at Lima 2019,” said Roberto, a T20 long jump athlete.
The delegations of Aruba, El Salvador Haiti, Mexico, Uruguay, Argentina, and Costa Rica will be welcomed today, as most of their Para athletes are already at the Parapan American Village.
