        On Wednesday, June 26, the Perrysburg Commons and Heartland of Perrysburg campus, located on Fremont Pike in Perrysburg, was a stop for the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics.
        The officers were carrying the Flame of Hope on their way to Columbus to ignite the ceremonial cauldron to officially begin the 2019 Special Olympics Ohio State Summer Games, held June 28-30. The Flame of Hope has been carried by tens of thousands of officers over the past 32 years.
        Residents, families and staff lined the drive to welcome the runners. Noisemakers were handed out to everyone who attended.
        When the runners arrived, they were greeted with a big crowd, making a lot of noise.
        Following the run, a complimentary brunch was served in the courtyard of The Commons.
