The Swansea Police Department was proud to take part in the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics today! We received the torch from the Belleville Police Department.
Our officers, supporters, and several Belleville Police Department members had the honor of carrying the Flame of Hope through Swansea in celebration of the incredible Special Olympics athletes who inspire communities across Illinois.
Thank you to everyone who came out to cheer us on and show support, even in the rain. We are proud to stand with Special Olympics and serve as Guardians of the Flame!
