Florida Special Olympics Torch Run Begins In Century

March 29, 2022

The 2022 Law Enforcement Torch Run in support of Florida Special Olympics began in Century Monday morning and continued through Pensacola.

The torch run started at the Florida/Alabama state line Monday morning. Runners from Century Correctional Institution carried the torch from the state line to the Century Chamber of Commerce with an escort from the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office. An additional leg of the torch run Monday traveled from the ESCO to Bartram Park in Pensacola with the ECSO, Florida Department of Law Enforcement and Pensacola Police taking part.

Statewide, the participating chiefs, officers, sheriffs, deputies, agents and cadets from virtually every branch of federal, state, county and municipal law enforcement, represent a total of over 300 different agencies. Funds are generated through the sale of the popular Torch Run T-shirts and hats, and through various local fundraising events.
