Sandra Henderson

Sandra James (née Henderson) is a Canadian gymnast best known for co-lighting the Olympic Flame with Stéphane Préfontaine at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal.

At the beginning of the 1980 Summer Olympics James was given the task of delivering the flame from Montreal mayor Jean Drapeau to Lord Killanin in Moscow. Historically the flames are passed from mayor to mayor but Canada was one of 64 countries that boycotted the games that year.
