Many Espanola residents will have fond memories of the Pan-AM Torch passing through town on Tuesday. The big celebration took place at the Recreation Complex. At the complex, main torch carrier David Gallant, a teacher and coach handed over the torch to the younger generation. In this case that was A. B Ellis Grade 8 student Monikka McGreggor. The torch relay was kicked off by Kim Gardner. The celebration saw several speeches including fellow teacher Tony Yachuk talking about Gallant’s teaching and coaching career.
