Depending on the event, law enforcement volunteers might present awards to athletes, take part in an Opening Ceremony or cruiser parade, serve meals to athletes, volunteers and families, or showcase agency vehicles through interactive displays.

Being a partner means being part of the Special Olympics New Hampshire community through the Law Enforcement Torch Run. Whether you get involved by volunteering, fundraising, raising awareness or participating in LETR events and initiatives, there are many ways for you and your agency to make a difference.

There’s no single way to be an LETR partner. You can find the opportunities that are the right fit for you, your agency and your community. Every connection helps support Special Olympics New Hampshire athletes and strengthens the partnership between law enforcement and Special Olympics.

Awards presentation is the portion of a Special Olympics competition where law enforcement volunteers present athletes with the awards they’ve earned for their athletic performance.

For athletes, the awards presentation is an important part of the competition experience. Having their accomplishments recognized by the local law enforcement heroes they look up to makes that moment even more special.

Awards presentation opportunities are available at every Special Olympics New Hampshire competition and are a meaningful way for you and your agency to get involved. Law enforcement members can register for available opportunities throughout the year.

For most LETR volunteer opportunities, law enforcement professionals are encouraged to wear their uniform and proudly represent their role and agency.

This is especially meaningful when presenting awards at Special Olympics competitions. Athletes work hard for their moment on the podium, and receiving recognition for their accomplishments from the law enforcement heroes they look up to in their communities makes that moment even more special.

If you’re serving as a one-day volunteer in a general volunteer role, you’re welcome to wear your uniform, but it isn’t required. Some events and volunteer roles are better suited for more casual attire.

The Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics (LETR) is a year-round partnership between law enforcement and Special Olympics that raises funds and awareness while championing inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities.
