Will the 2022 Winter Olympics return to Salt Lake City, UT which will also feature Park City, UT? Gov. Gary Herbert recently formed an 11 person committee to explore whether Utah should mount a bid for future Olympics.
The 2014 Winter Olympics will be held in Sochi, Russia and the 2018 Winter Olympics will be held in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
Park City hosted about half of the athletic events in the successful 2002 Winter Olympics and many of the venues have remained, and those have hosted many International events and provide training facilities for many Olympic atheletes.
The United States Olympic Committee has until 2013 to decide if the USOC will submit a bid for 2022 or 2026. Reno/Tahoe is also considering submitting a bid to the USOC. The IOC (International Olympic Committee) will choose a site in 2015.
