2010 Torch

I carried the torch during the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic Games Torch Relay. I carried in Northern Ontario.

The torch is for sale, and is posted on eBay.

I provide this site in order to provide more detailed pictures of the torch, the torchbearer uniform, and the Coca-Cola Cheer Kit.

I have used eBay for many years and have an excellent seller reputation. Bid with confidence!

Torch

This is the torch that I carried. I have decided to leave the soot on the torch, but it can easily be removed. I will leave it up to the buyer to clean it if they wish. Torchbearers were provided with a cloth sheath for their torch and a cardboard storage box. All are included.

Coca-Cola Cheer Kit

Because I was chosen to carry the torch through Coca-Cola, I was given a Coca-Cola Cheer Kit with my uniform. It included, a box, a congratulatory letter, a Limited Edition Coca-Cola bottle light (3336 of 4500), five pennants, a bag, a window sticker, and a black marker. All are included.
