After A Century Start, Special Olympics Torch Run Ends In Orlando

May 21, 2013

The annual Special Olympics Florida’s Summer Games were held over the weekend in Orlando, marking the end of the 2013 Law Enforcement Torch Run that started in Century in March.

The state run began at the Florida/Alabama state line back on Monday, March 25. Employees from Century Correctional Institution and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office escorted the torch down Highway 29 through Century. The run continued over 1500 miles in segments across the state, ending in Orlando.

At the Special Olympics in Orlando, deputies Jeff Cutaio and Jeremiah Weeks represented the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office in the opening ceremonies.
