Table of Contents
History
During the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, representatives of several Latin-American countries proposed a kind of regional Olympics for all of the Americas. The Central American Games were already in existence, having been hosted by Mexico in 1926 and by Cuba in 1930. In 1938, the Central American Games expanded in scope, becoming the Central American and Caribbean Games, and the idea of international sports competition also embracing North America was revived after being on hold for six years. As a result, the Pan American Sports Congress was founded at Buenos Aires, Argentina, in August of 1940 and delegates agreed that Buenos Aires should host the first Pan American Games in 1942. That didn't happen because of World War II, but the Pan American Sports Congress met again during the 1948 Olympics in London and revived the idea. Buenos Aires finally hosted the first Pan American Games, which opened on February 25, 1951. The 21 countries that took part were represented by 2,513 athletes competing in 18 sports. The organizing body was renamed the Pan American Sports Organization (PASO) in 1955, when the games were held in Mexico City. Canada competed for the first time, bringing the total number of countries to 22. There are currently 42 countries from North, South, and Central America and the Caribbean in PASO, which is headquartered in Mexico City. More than 5,000 athletes have participated at each Pan American Games since 1995.

She was the first U.S. national champion in 1914, won the first Olympic skating medal (bronze) for the U.S. in 1920, and won the U.S. pairs competition nine times with partner Nathaniel Niles. Tenley Albright was the first American woman figure skater to win both a skating world championship and an Olympic gold medal. She won the world championship in 1953 and the gold medal at the 1956 games. In 1964, at age 15, Peggy Fleming became the youngest person ever to win the U.S. women's figure skating championship. She won the only gold medal for the U.S. four years later at the 1968 Olympics at Grenoble, France. In 1997, at age 14, Tara Lipinski became the youngest woman to win the World figure skating championship. Just a year later at age 15, she became the youngest Olympic figure skating champion in history when she edged fellow American Michelle Kwan for the gold.

Most boys and girls learn how to skate on driveways, sidewalks, or playgrounds. Beginning skaters usually wear adjustable clamp skates, which fasten to the soles of their regular shoes or boots. The molded toe clamps are tightened with a skate key, and leather straps bind the skates to the ankle. Strap-on skates have flexible Velcro fastenings.

Derek Parra
Athlete San Bernardino Sun reporter Paul Oberjuerge, "that's more important than anything else."
Raced for Food
Parra grew up in San Bernardino's West Side neighborhood. His mother had departed when he was a toddler, and Parra's father worked as a prison guard to support him and his brother. As a kid, Parra and his older brother, Gilbert, loved to skate at the Stardust Roller Rink. Having no money for snacks, they began racing as a way to win food tickets from others. "We used to race for hot dogs and Cokes," Gilbert Parra told St. Petersburg Times
