Elora resident Cynthia McGeoch, will be carrying the Olympic flame in Hanover on Dec 28, 2009
Her pledge was to “Create stronger communities. Get involved with my community through volunteerism. I plan to volunteer with the local Girl Guide troop. I want to be a positive and strong role model for the young girls in our community.”
She is running at 2:18pm on Monday, Dec. 28 in Hanover along 10th Street from, 5th Avenue to 3rd Avenue.
“I’ve grown up watching the Olympics and as a regular Canadian this is a great way to participate and share in the Olympic spirit. I was fortunate enough to have done the torch relay back in 1988 in Newfoundland and thought it would be fun to do it again and in another province. I am proud to be a torchbearer and to have the opportunity to participate in such a great event that unites the whole country.”
