Volunteer
Manchester 2012 – The Olympic Year
They turned up in their hundreds
to serve those landing in the city
to train, prepare and take part
in the pursuit of Gold, Silver and Bronze
Each with their individual role
A happy audience – the ultimate goal
Making sure the fans made their way to the game
Safe with a smile – that was the aim
Colourful characters – lining the street
a parade of marshals – who could not be beat
as fans from the world – arrived at a ground
and wanted to know how to get around
Cogs in the machine – with pointers and maps
Happy as one – helpful ladies and chaps
Treating the fans as welcomed guests
A team of vollies – that were the best
