The pupils of a primary school on Qingdao's Hongkong Road
received the first batch of "smile wristlets" for the Olympic
volunteers.
The Qingdao sailing sub-committee, along with the relevant
government department, will distribute 300,000 to 50,000 sets of
the wristlets to the residents till August 2008.
There are five colors of the wristlets: Red represents readiness
to help others; Yellow -- civility and politeness; Black -- honesty
and trustworthiness; Blue -- studying and forging ahead; and Green
-- environmental protection.
The obverse side of the wristlets bears the characters of
"smile, promise", as well as the official emblem of the Olympics,
while on the reserve side, it says "Your smile is the best name
card of Qingdao."
