Fresh air, clear skies and a lit torch rallied about 75 people to the starting line Saturday morning for a 3-mile run in support of the islandâs Special Olympians.
Led by a torch-bearer Kaleb Parker, 15, runners started at Kodiak High School and set off on the run along Rezanof Drive, over the Fred Zharoff Memorial Bridge to Near Island and Trident Basin, and back again.
As runners continued the course to Near Island, the torch was passed to members of law enforcement.
The Law Enforcement Torch Run and Pledge Drive for Special Olympics serves a dual purpose: to show support by Kodiakâs law enforcement for the Special Olympics program and to help raise money for it.

Candidates for Associated Student Government executive positions took questions from students Friday night in the third and final debate of the 2021 election, prompting conversations about inclusivity, student safety and accountability of campus leaders.
The presidential, vice-presidential, treasurer and secretary candidates on the Vision and Make it Matter tickets shared the stage in a town-hall-style forum moderated by Honors College Dean Lynda Coon. To accommodate COVID-19 restrictions, the event was live-streamed to a virtual crowd, and students were asked to submit questions through Instagram and Twitter.
Much of the discussion was geared toward improving the presence of ASG agents on campus, particularly within student-led organizations, and creating a more accessible student government. The prospective leaders were asked how they plan to ensure that Registered Student Organizations will receive the funds and resources needed to operate successfully.
