Organizing Committee celebrates postal issue and highlights the magnitude of the Santo Domingo 2026 Central American Games<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nDuring the event held by the Dominican Postal Institute (INPOSDOM) and the Organizing Committee of Santo Domingo 2026, Mej\u00eda Oviedo highlighted the postal entity’s initiative to dedicate a series of stamps to the sporting event and assured that the Games are already part of the country’s historical heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt is an honorable distinction and a great pleasure for Centro Caribe Sports that the Dominican Postal Institute has decided to issue a postage stamp dedicated to the Games,\u201d he expressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sports leader took the opportunity to highlight the work being carried out by the Organizing Committee and stated that, with less than a month to go before the start of the event, the country is practically ready to receive the delegations from the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI am honored to testify, as president of the Games’ parent organization, that a few days before their celebration we are practically ready as a nation to hold the Games,\u201d he maintained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mej\u00eda Oviedo stressed that postage stamps transcend their function of postage and become permanent symbols of the identity of peoples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPostage stamps are more than just postage, they are more than an issue. They are history, but the true reason for a postage stamp is that they are works of art: they travel the world and remain,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He added that, while sports competitions conclude and become part of historical records, stamps remain as a legacy that preserves collective memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Games pass and are inscribed in history. Postage stamps live forever and they live with a history that defines an identity, a culture and a nation,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The president of Centro Caribe Sports also recalled the close historical relationship between the Olympic movement and philately, noting that major sporting events are often immortalized through postal issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBe part of the history of the Olympic Games. There are no Olympics without the issuance of postage stamps for each edition. And a centenary edition like the one we will have in the country could not exist without its postage stamp either,\u201d he expressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, Mej\u00eda Oviedo celebrated that the 25th edition of the Central American and Caribbean Games, and the third to be held in the Dominican Republic, has been captured for posterity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Santo Domingo 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games are already sealed in history. They now have their postage stamp,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
