We were proud to welcome local law enforcement and Special Olympics athletes to McDaniel College today as part of the Carroll County Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics Maryland!

For over 20 years, the Department of Campus Safety has proudly participated in this meaningful tradition, helping to raise awareness and support for the incredible athletes of Special Olympics. This year's event brought energy, unity, and inspiration to campus as the torch made its way down W. Main Street and onto the Hill.

A special thank you to President Jasken for joining us and welcoming the runners, walkers, bikers, and to all the officers, volunteers, and supporters who made this event possible.
