The Indiana Bicentennial Torch Relay traveled through Cass County today. See a gallery of photos on our Facebook page here.
The relay began in Corydon, in Harrison County, on Sept. 9 and will conclude in Indianapolis on Oct. 15. It is patterned after the Olympic Torch Relay, passing through all 92 counties, covering approximately 97 miles per day.
