About the 2025 ColorFest Color Run/Walk 5K
This is a color run put on by a local nonprofit that supports adults with developmental disabilities. Volunteers at stations along the course dust runners with color as they pass through. The route is mostly flat and goes through scenic surroundings, and the whole thing is untimed. Costume categories add another layer, so plenty of people show up dressed for it.
Packet pickup the evening before is at a local frozen yogurt shop in town, which is also where you can register ahead of race day. If you miss that window, check-in opens early on race morning. Cash is required for any race-day registration.
