The Equinics torch that carries the Equinics flame on its 95-day tour from Vermont to Pyeongchang County, South Korea is passed on from one torchbearer to another until all of the participating residencies have carried the lighted torch, a flame

that illuminates a special memory throughout the Sim Community.  The Olympic flame ends its journey by lighting the Olympic Cauldron of the Games.
