COLLIER COUNTY, Fla.– Local law enforcement agencies from Collier County took part in this year’s 40th annual Law Enforcement Torch Run for the 2023 Special Olympics Games.
Collier County Sheriff’s Office deputies, and officers with Naples, and Marco Island Police Departments ran the iconic Flame of Hope from headquarters to the Publix across the street from the Coastland Center Mall.
In total, it was a 4.8 mile run.
Local departments join law enforcement officers from all 67 Florida counties for the Torch Run. Locally, the only county still left to go is Hendry County. That run is scheduled for Saturday April 29th at 8am.
The 2023 Special Olympics Games will be in Orlando next month.
