Lake County law enforcement and Lake County Special Olympics will bring the Northern California Special Olympics Torch Run to Lake County this June 7, and the effort is seeking volunteers and support.
The event features the running of the "Flame of Hope" throughout communities to raise awareness for Special Olympics programs, the Northern California event highlights the running of the torch throughout cities and towns, culminating at the Opening Ceremonies of the Special Olympics Northern California Summer Games.
Law enforcement officers here in Lake County have come together to carry the flame throughout the county to show their support for the many athletes in our community that participate year-round in our own Lake County Special Olympics program, along with those that will be participating in the Northern California Summer Games.
Support for the event can include officers volunteering to run, as well as community members supporting participating officers, volunteering or simply coming out to cheer them on. |
