Greetings from Berlin!

Greg Dawson and I are in Berlin for a handful of days meeting with our colleagues at the Local Organizing Committee. We had the pleasure meeting eight of your German teammates, who are pictured above with our torch in front of the Brandenburg Gate.

Today (28 April) was the official public release of the Final Leg Torch, pictured below.

Local school children visiting the Brandenburg Gate got to meet Unity and hold the Torch

As many of you may know, Germany does not yet have an LETR program. Today, Greg and I met with the officers and gave them an introduction to our movement, Special Olympics, and the Final Leg.

Beginning tomorrow, we will be doing recon on each of the running routes.

You are going to have a fantastic time in Germany!
