amorincognito Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 NEWSBRIEF - MONTREUX ACCEPTS SECOND OLYMPIC WINTER NOMINATION MONTREUX - 20 MARCH In light of the second refusal of Sion for the Swiss candidacy for the Olympic Winter Games, the former candidature committee of Montreux 2022 is prepared to make another try for Switzerland. Under the candidacy "Suisse 2026 Montreux", the city is prepared to present its candidacy linking Montreux with the Alpes Vaudoises and the city of Lausanne, the Olympic Capital. All venue towns from the Montreux concept have already given their approval of the candidacy and are prepared to offer their accommodations and infrastructures for the Winter Olympic Games. The exact concept, however, is yet to be finalized, though the bid committee has released its logo in a brief press conference at the Montreux Conventions Centre.
