The Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics is back and scheduled for Thursday, June 9.

It’s time for the annual Torch Run for Special Olympics and the Prince William County Police Department would love to have the public join in and cheer on the runners. 

The Torch that symbolizes the beginning of the Special Olympics Games in Richmond, Va., is lit in Arlington and is carried by police officers and Special Olympians to Richmond on Thursday, June 9, 2021.

Runners and supporters will gather at the rear of the Gar-Field Eastern District Station, 15948 Donald Curtis Drive, Woodbridge at 9 a.m. and ultimately pass the torch over to the PMO/Marines at Quantico’s front gates on Fuller Road.
