Torch’s first time
The flame that will light the state Special Olympics games in June made its way through Sylva May 11, the first time the Special Olympics torch has passed through Jackson County, said interim coordinator Pat Beasley. On hand for its arrival from Murphy was Sylva Police Sgt. Davis Woodard, above, who joined nearly 20 other law enforcement officers from the Sylva P.D., Jackson County Sheriff’s Office and N.C. Highway Patrol to run the torch about 3 miles from the Justice Center to Harris Regional Hospital, where they made connection with law enforcement from Haywood County. For names of some of the Special Olympics athletes involved, see page 7A. – Herald photo by Carey King |
