Boston 2024 Leftover Branded Items Given to Staff, Youth

The U.S. Olympic Committee and Boston 2024 announced their decision last month to end Boston's campaign to host the 2014 Olympic and Paralympic Games, but what about all the promotional products already created for the bid?

The Boston Globe reports that T-shirts, sunglasses and rubber bracelets are among the promotional products boasting Boston 2024 Olympics logo that can still be found in boxes around the organization's offices. While there isn't much remaining, officials have opted to give staff first dibs to the remaining promotional products.
