As 9-year-old Morgan House watched the Centennial Olympic Games from the shores of Lake Lanier, the world’s best kayakers paddled through the lake’s still waters. Little did he know he would be managing those waters nearly 20 years later. Today, House is venue manager at the Lake Lanier Olympic Park on Clarks Bridge Road in Gainesville.
