Each summer, law enforcement officials from across Virginia carry the Flame of Hope on a 1,900 mile journey to the Special Olympics Virginia Summer Games Opening Ceremony in Richmond. This 8-day Torch Run involves more than 2,000 law enforcement officers and personnel representing more than 200 law enforcement agencies across Virginia.
This Saturday, June 1, 2019, the Abingdon Police Department will participate in their leg of the Torch Run starting at 10:00AM at the Charwood Center. Participants will make the 7-mile run with the torch down Main Street to the parking lot across from Johnston Memorial Hospital. Please be cautious through Abingdon on Saturday and be aware of slow moving traffic regarding the Torch Run.
