The TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Torch Relay is coming to the City and County of Peterborough next spring! Thirty thousand torchbearers will proudly carry the flame and share its welcoming Pan Am spirit on the 41-day journey around Canada towards the lighting of the cauldron on July 10, 2015 in Toronto to officially open the Games, and one of the stops includes Peterborough. Residents of the Peterborough area are invited to enter to be a torchbearer today at TORONTO2015.org/torch-relay. “We’re excited that the City of Peterborough has been named as a major celebration community for the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Torch Relay and we look forward to welcoming the Pan Am flame to the City and County of Peterborough next spring as we showcase our unique regional heritage and sporting traditions,” says Mayor Daryl Bennett. “We encourage all of the residents of the City and County who will be aged 13 and older by May 30, 2015 to apply to be torchbearers today at TORONTO2015.org/torch-relay. We’ll also be selecting our own special community torchbearer to run on our behalf when the flame comes to town.”
