It is a year-round fundraising campaign that culminates every year at the Special Olympics Maryland Summer Games in June.  Whether you want to escort the Special Olympics Torch, the Flame of Hope, with other civilians and Law Enforcement personnel on its way to the Summer Games Opening Ceremonies, or want to raise funds for Special Olympics, everyone in the community is invited to participate.
