A huge honor has been bestowed on a pair of runners from Saint John. Ellen Steeves of Rothesay and Alex Coffin have been chosen as two of the Olympic Torcher-Bearers when it comes through Greater Saint John next month. Coffin didn't apply for the duty he was nominated and tells CHSJ News, this is a dream come true.
Ellen Steeves lives and works for the Town of Rothesay. We contacted City Hall to see if the full list of names has been released and a spokes-person tells us they are under embargo by order of the Vancouver Olympic Committee. The torch will run through Greater Saint John on November.24th.
