PAN AM GAMES ”1 can’t wait to see the athletes!” There will be so many people from the Americas!” I'm volunteering for the opening cere- monies.” That was the talk around the town dur- ing the summer of 1987. The sailing races for the Tenth Pan American Games were held in Michigan City; the rest of the games were held in Indianapolis. The games not only brought new faces to Michigan City but added beauty to our community. Flowers were planted, new signs were installed, streets were fixed. and the town was cleaned up. The Pan Am Games held a car show and a successful 50’s and 60’s concert at Rog- ers High School. Stars like Little Anthony, the Drifters and the Shirelles sang every- one into a frenzy! The opening ceremonies were held at Ames Field. There was the lighting of the torch, entertainment by Amigo, the offi- cial Pan Am mascot, skits, and entertain- ment by a live band. Everyone was able to see the athletes from all the participating countries up close. The athletes walked around the edges of the field and waved to the spectators. The flags of the thirty- eight nations participating in the games were held by area volunteers. Some people were upset that the races couldn't be witnessed from the shore, however the publicity from the Pan Am Games was a positive thing. Michigan City was even mentioned in USA Today. It was nice, if even for a moment, to be in the spotlight. -Tracy Alber -Amy Russell The Pan Am Lightning class takes a practice run on Lake Michigan as their spinnakers unfurl on a down wind leg.
