Law Enforcement Torch Run
The mission of The Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics (LETR) is to increase awareness and raise funds for Special Olympics. Each year the LETR gets bigger and better.
Special Olympics Athlete and Special Olympics Maryland Digital Media Coordinator Adam Hays joins JR to discuss the "inclusion revolution" and share his own story about how a boy born with hydrocephalus (commonly referred to as "water on the brain") and who underwent more than 30 brain surgeries can go on to win two gold medals at the USA Games and represent all athletes as one of the Law Enforcement Torch Run Final Leg team members at the Special Olympic World Games in Athens, Greece. When others have doubted Adam, he has proved them wrong by living a full life and achieving some of his wildest dreams
On June 7, the flame of the Special Olympics World Games will be lit in Athens.
