The day will be kicked off at 8am with the Color Me Fun 5K Run.  Runners will participate in a non-competitive race through the west side, as they and fellow runners through a mixture of corn starch and color, that will paint the white t-shirts with a rainbow of fun.

Late entry is now $40 for adults and $15 for kids 12 and under.  Register here.

*Dallas Foster will be giving away seedlings to children to take home and plant.
