In the 2023-2024 school year you helped us raise over $190,000 to move learners to 1:1 devices in 1st grade-on, start a grant program to further development of our Staff and fund their great ideas, provide new uniforms for our sports teams, weight-training & sports equipment and provide Financial Aid to families who contribute to our positive environment and are already sacrificing much to send their children here. We’ve made great progress and have finished or are in the final stages of each of these projects!

How does my child sign up/ register?  

No need to register your child. They are all set to run! You were sent an email from our online platform 99Pledges you can use to send out to all your family and friends to obtain sponsors for your child.   

Can I sign up the day of the run to participate with my child?
  

Yes! Please register at the check-in station on race day. There will be a $30 registration fee for each parent. Your registration provides you with a Color Run t-shirt (limited supply). 

How does my child pick up their race day items?
  

Your child’s facilitator will hand out race day items the morning of the run.  

Please note any incentives earned after Tuesday, February 25 11:59pm PT, will be distributed on Monday, March 3rd. 

How does the post-race color throw work?
 

Learners who have earned their color packet incentive will be able to throw their color at the finish line along with the other learners.  

Will the color ruin my clothes or running shoes?
 

The majority of the color washes out after the event. It’s best to wear items that you wouldn’t mind getting colored. We suggest washing items worn for the Color Run separately from your other laundry.  

Do you have a cleaning station after the race?
 

We have air-blown color cleaning at the finish line. With a good dusting off, you won’t be 100% clean, but you’ll be good for the drive home. We will also provide car seat covers.   

Will running through the color zones affect my vision or breathing?
 

The color powder is all certified non-toxic and free of any heavy metals. The bright colors are a combination of cornstarch, baking soda, and FD&C (food-safe) dyes. Some runners opt to wear glasses or goggles for their eyes and use a bandana or dust mask for their mouths.  

Are there awards/prizes?  

Yes! Prizes are given at the raised incentive amounts. Please see the incentive prize list for more details.    

Is my registration fee tax deductible?  

Yes.
