The Special Olympics Torch Run is making its way through Stow. When the torch reaches the Stow/Hudson border on SR91 and Norton Road, Stow law enforcement officers will take over and run with the torch south on SR91 to the Stow/Munroe Falls border where it will be handed off to law enforcement officers from Munroe Falls and Tallmadge.
The Law Enforcement Torch Run began in 1981 to raise funds for and awareness of the Special Olympics. The Stow Police Department is asking that the community support the Special Olympics and the runners with a donation. You can get donation envelopes from Vicki Huff at City Hall and from Deb Berkey at the Safety Building.
