The Ohio Law Enforcement torch run will 
start today in Hamilton for the Hamilton and Butler counties leg of the 
statewide run.
More than 2,000 officers from Ohio will carry the 
torch through 150 communities to raise money and awareness for the 
Special Olympics. The run is the largest year round fundraising event 
that benefits Special Olympics Ohio. Last year, the torch run raised 
more than 518,000 dollars for competing athletes throughout the state of
 Ohio.
The torch run will pass through Hamilton for the 17th year as 
it makes its way to the Special Olympics opening ceremonies in Columbus,
 which begins Friday at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium on the campus of 
Ohio State University.
