Torch Run Triumph – A Day to Remember!
On June 3rd, the Wilmington Police Department & WSWSU community came together in a powerful and inspiring way for the Special Olympics Torch Run—and what a day it was!
From cheering crowds to proud smiles, this annual event once again showcased the heart of our schools. Students, staff, law enforcement officers, and community members joined in to carry the Flame of Hope, symbolizing inclusion, courage, and the power of unity. The energy was electric, and the spirit of support was undeniable.
A huge thank you to everyone who participated, organized, or lined the route to cheer. Your presence made a lasting impact and reminded us that when we come together, we create a community where every individual is celebrated.
Special shout-out to Andrew Oyer along with TVMHS faculty/staff and our incredible student-athletes—you inspire us every day with your determination, strength, and joy. We are so proud of you!
Let’s continue to carry this spirit of inclusion and pride into all we do. Here are some great moments captured from this year’s Special Olympics Torch Run and a link to the youtube video montage—thank you to everyone who made it so special!
