Special thanks to Captain Lenny Coppenrath and Lieutenant Tim Curtin for organizing this event.

The Law Enforcement Torch Run® (LETR) is a year-round fundraising and awareness building program, designed to allow members of the law enforcement community the opportunity to support Special Olympics athletes who live, work and compete in their local communities.

Since its inception in 1981, the Law Enforcement Torch Run program has raised over $790,000,000 globally. In 2018, Massachusetts LETR raised over $680,000!
