              The items include three DVDs from 2005-2010 that contain videos on a variety of topics regarding Olympic Games and one CD-R disc that contains one PDF of a study on the Whistler Athlete's Village heating system feasibility from 2004, as well as an excel matrix on the same topic.

              One DVD is a short promotional video endorsing the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics bid, titled "Driven by Nature". The video contains a slide show of images related to Whistler, Vancouver, Canadian Olympic Athletes, Coastal Mountain landscapes, recreational activities, winter sports, and people. The short video is set to lively music with the slogan "we are driven by nature" overlaying the images. The images are also tinted with the Olympic colours of blue, yellow, green, and red. This DVD is housed in a paper cover with further promotional information to do with the 2010 Olympic bid as well as images of mountains, people, and Coastal B.C. Indigenous art.

              One DVD is a short video, titled "Response to Request for Proposal - Gold Option Fly Through", and contains Lunney International Group Ltd's concept design for the BC Canada House at the Torino 2006 Winter Olympic Games. The flythrough shows the concept design for both the exterior and interior of the proposed BC Canada House. The concept design included promoting Vancouver and British Columbia as the host city and province for the following winter games in 2010.

              The PDF is titled "Whistler Athlete's Village District heating System Feasibility Study for the Resort Municipality of Whistler BC Hydro Terasen Gas". The study was conducted and prepared by Keen Engineering and outlines several options for sustainable, economic, and appropriate methods for supplying heat to the proposed Athlete's Village development. The Excel matrix is titled "6547-01 Appen C Whistler Matrix_006" and displays data regarding heating systems, their sustainability, economics, characteristics, and an evaluation criterial list.

              One DVD contains a digital orientation program for volunteer applicants of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games hosted in Vancouver and Whistler. It requires Adobe Flash Player to run.
