US Olympic officials have changed the name of an athlete hospitality space at the Milano Cortina Games from “Ice House” to “Winter House,” a move that comes following protests in Minneapolis over the fatal shootings of two US citizens by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers. The venue has been billed by the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC) as an “athlete-first space” where US figure skaters, hockey players, speedskaters and their families can gather in what is normally a boutique-style hotel in the heart of Milan. “Our hospitality concept was designed to be a private space free of distractions where athletes, their families, and friends can come together to celebrate the unique experience of the Winter Games,” US Figure Skating, USA Hockey and US Speedskating said in a joint statement.
