Color Run Special Update

Our inaugural “Color Me Whittier” fun run is THIS FRIDAY, rain or shine!  Here is a breakdown of how things will work:

  • Shirts, sunglasses, and sponsor swag will be going home from school with those who have registered on Thursday!
  • Check in starts at 5 pm on Friday on the intermediate playground.  EVERYONE must check in to receive a bracelet that will indicate each participant’s heat!
  • Be sure to wear your official shirt, sunglasses and any other flare you’d like!  GET CREATIVE!  The more obnoxious, the better!!
  • The first heat will gather at the starting line at 5:30.  Subsequent heats will take off every 5-10 minutes.  Listen for your bracelet color to be called to take your turn running/walking the .5 mile course and to GET BLASTED WITH COLOR!!
  • Course marshals will make sure you stay on the course for maximum blasting!
  • Then join us on the intermediate playground for the after party:  music, pizza and shaved ice (available for purchase), Experience sign-up, and entertainment from DLD Dance Center, as well as a very special COLOR TOSS for all attendees before the end of the night!  
  • All the fun will wrap up around 7 pm! 

Thank you SO MUCH for all your support for our first color run…we hope everyone has a fun-tastic time!  Questions?  Email colormewhittier@gmail.com
