Residents of King Township, Newmarket and Bradford West Gwillimbury, anxious to catch the Olympic Spirit will have the opportunity to see the Olympic Flame up close as it passes through on December 18, 2009 (Day 50 of 106) heading to the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games. On Day 61, the Olympic Torch returns to the South Simcoe area, after having completed a circuit of southwestern Ontario. On December 29, the torch will pass through Alliston – with stops planned in the Celebration Communities of Cookstown in Innisfil, and Barrie. The 2010 Olympic Torch Relay begins its 106-day Canadian journey on October 30, 2009. The Flame’s cross-Canadian trip culminates on February 12, 2010 when it arrives in Vancouver for the Opening Ceremony, before a global viewing audience of billions. The Vancouver 2010 Olympic Torch Relay route will be the longest domestic Torch Relay in Olympic history, stretching over 45,000 km throughout Canada. On its conclusion, the Olympic Flame will have been welcomed in over 1,000 communities and passed within one hour of more than 90 percent of the entire Canadian population. Guess who will be in Cookstown on Dec 29th doing live video?

Something you don’t see everyday and that fact we can do this is why we think it’s a great idea to invite the members to watch the torch run live from Cookstown.
