Olympic Torch Reaches Shrewsbury

Today the Green Achiever team, along with hundreds of others, gathered on the streets of Shrewsbury to watch the Olympic Torch relay.

It was a once in a lifetime oppurtunity that we will never forget, as it head over the Welsh Bridge at about 12.20pm and then off towards Wenlock Road. The runners were escorted along bby many policemen on bikes and sponsor vehicles such as Coca-Cola and Lloyds playing music to warm up the cheering crowd.

Fran was the best photographer within the team, taking this photo of our section runner, Georgios Alexandris.
