Boral Olympic Dream Pathway

The Boral Olympic Dream Pathway, at the Fig Grove, is a living memory of the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. The pathway consists of nearly 100,000 pavers on which the names of thousands of athletes, spectators, supporters and Boral employees, are engraved. Construction materials giant Boral Ltd, which was one of the official suppliers of building and construction materials to the 2000 Sydney Olympics, sponsored the project. The objective of the project was to give every Australian the chance to make Olympic Games history, by leaving a personal, permanent message at the site of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.

World champion athlete Cathy Freeman has dedicated a paver to her family, inscribed with the message "To my family, love Cathy". Olympic legend Herb Elliot also endorsed the program, presenting Cathy Freeman with a special brick from the Australian Olympic Committee. These bricks are laid along with thousands of others engraved with personalised messages in the heart of Sydney Olympic Park at Homebush Bay. The ornamental pavers were manufactured at Boral’s brick factory in Bringelly, New South Wales.
