History of the Games
Governor Atiyeh and wife Dolores arrive by helicopter landing in Portland Civic Stadium to help open the inaugural State Games of Oregon. Earlier at the state capitol, Governor Atiyeh lit and handed the State Games of Oregon torch to then Senator John Kitzhaber. After 3 miles the torch was handed off to the State Games relay team. The torch was carried to the opening ceremonies in Civic Stadium in time for torchlighter Robin Marks, former Queen of Rosaria and outstanding track athlete, to light the cauldron after Governor Atiyeh officially opened the Games.
The inaugural State Games of Oregon games offered 11 sports throughout the Portland Metro area. 4,003 athletes participated and endorsed the concept of an Olympic style multi-sport festival.
Three sports were added to the 1987 (figure skating, boardsailing, shooting) and limited regional competition was introduced in Bend, Medford and Eugene. Some 5,000 athletes participated. The torch relay began in Salem with Attorney General Dave Frohnmayer handing the torch off to the State Games relay team. Governor Neil Goldschmidt "opened" the State Games.
Six new sports were added to the State Games raising the total to 20 sports. Newly added sports included: Bowling, Cycling, Roller Skating, Rowing, Springboard Diving and Synchronized Swimming. the sport of Bowling drew nearly 5,000 competitors for it's inaugural year.

Derek Parra
On the ice with a chiropractic proponent and double-medal Olympian
By Pattie Stechschulte
During the 1990s, Derek Parra made a name for himself as a world-renowned inline skater with three national titles, two world championships and 18 gold medals to his credit.
Then in 1996, he joined several other inline skaters by making the switch from rollerblades to ice skates and has become a world-class speed skater winning a gold and silver Olympic medal and setting a world record.
Switching Gears
Considered one of the most accomplished athletes in the short history of inline skating, Parra did not adjust to ice right away as a long track speed skater.
Long track speed skating was included in the first winter Olympic Games in 1924, because it was a favorite winter pastime in many northern European countries. Short track speed skating was added to Olympic competition in 1992 with the difference being in the size of the oval track.
On the long track, skaters race compete against the clock on a 400-meter oval course while the short track skaters race against each other on a much shorter, narrow oval. Using klap skates, which have a front hinge allowing skaters to lift their heel for more power, being able to reach speeds up to 40 miles per hour.

2001 US National Champion Sponsored by the ACAuxiliary and the ACA In 1984 Derek began speed roller-skating and by 1996 he had become the most decorated athlete in the history of the sport. As an inliner he was a three-time national champion two-time overall World Champion, two-time World record holder (1500m and 42K) and earned eighteen individual gold medals. He was the most decorated athlete at the 1995 Pan-Am Games winning 5 golds, 2 silver and a bronze medal. His award collection include everything but an Olympic Medal. Unfortunately for Derek, because inline skating is not an Olympic sport, roller-skating would never provide him with a chance to win that medal. So in 1996, at 25 years old, an age when most skaters begin to think of retiring, Derek decided to switch from inline to ice skates to chase after that medal. Just two years later, he proved to the speed skating world that his medal pursuit was for real when he earned a spot on the 1998 US Olympic Team. Today, he is a two-time US National All-round Champion, holder of two American records, and the reigning North American Champion. He has set his sights on completing his medal collection next February at the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympic Games. On the Ice: 2002 Winter Olympic Gold and Silver Medalist 2001 North American Champion

Parra, 1 st Mexican-American To Win Winter Olympic Gold
By George Diaz
February 20, 2002
Orlando Sentinel
KEARNS, Utah Orlando speed skater Derek Parra glided into Olympic history again Tuesday by winning a gold medal and setting a world record in the 1,500-meters race at the Utah Olympic Oval. Watched by 27 members of his family and friends gathered to share the moment, Parra, with tears running down his cheeks, grabbed an American flag and punched his fists in the air. There was so much to celebrate: Parra won in a world-record time of 1 minute, 43.95 seconds, crushing the pre-Olympic record of 1:45.20 held by South Korea's Lee Kyu-hyuk. He becomes the first Mexican-American to win gold in the Winter Olympics (after winning a silver in the 5,000-meter race Feb. 9). He also becomes the first U.S. male speed skater to win two medals in a Winter Olympics since Eric Heiden in 1980. And he's not quite finished. Parra will lace up his skates again for the 10,000-meter race Friday. He hopes to catch a break from his boss at a neighboring Home Depot, where Parra works as part of an Olympic job program "Maybe I'll get moved to lumber now," he said. "Someone did say I came out of the woodwork.

This book is a very drill-orientated book. Overall, I was diappointed with this book. The
main focus was on drills and I wasn't aware
of it. The drills in it are great. They have
many drills for each individual skill.
However, the text wasn't that good. It seems
like it was written from an ice hockey
player's view point. There was little consideration for the difference between roller and ice hockey. it is a great learning book for new players it is the best book ive readfor learning to play hockey it teaches you everything Advanced Skateboarding: A Complete Guide to Skatepark Riding and Other Tips for the Better Skateboarder Author: Lavada.
