Edina Police Participate in Special Olympics Torch Run
Edina law enforcement participated in the 2025 Law Enforcement Torch Run, a fundraising event supporting Special Olympics Minnesota.
The torch relay began at Rosen Park and covered approximately 3 miles through the Westshore neighborhood before concluding at Tenn Lakes Pavilion. From there, the torch was handed off to another agency to continue the relay to the University of Minnesota, where Special Olympics events begin.
The Law Enforcement Torch Run serves as one of the primary fundraising efforts for Special Olympics, which provides athletic opportunities and social connections for individuals with disabilities. The event involves multiple law enforcement agencies across the region participating in the relay-style run.
According to the event description, participants light the torch and run designated segments before passing it to the next agency. The relay system allows law enforcement officers from various jurisdictions to contribute to the fundraising effort.
The torch run represents part of ongoing law enforcement community engagement efforts, connecting officers with charitable causes while supporting athletic programs for people with disabilities.
