Welcome Orono Police Department and Special Olympics Maine! ✨

Here we come! Tomorrow 6/5/26 we will be running through town with the torch raised in the air. It's for the smiles. It's for inclusion. It means the world to the athletes and even more to us. Line the streets and show support for all the athletes that will be competing in the 2026 Special Olympics Summer Games.

We pick up the torch at the Veazie/Orono town line @ approximately 3:15 P.M. We will make our way to the Steam Plant lot (College Avenue) where we will be met by surrounding agencies to complete the Final Leg and officially start the games at The University of Maine.
