Come join us for a colorful day of fun at Eldersburg Elementary School! The Color Run is a fantastic event where you can run, walk, or even skip through a rainbow of colors. Get ready to be splashed with vibrant hues as you make your way through the course. It's a great way to get active, have a blast, and support our school's PTA.

The Color Run is a one mile, untimed event. At various points throughout the course, Color Runners are doused in a different colored powder. Participants wear white at the starting line and finish the race plastered in color. Once the race is over, the fun continues at the Finish with live music, snacks and crafts.

Color Runners vary in demographics and reasons for running. With no winners or official times, The Color Run caters to everyone—first time runners to seasoned athletes.

The proceeds of the race will go directly to the Eldersburg Elementary School playground fund with our mission to have a 100% handicap accessible playground by the start of the next school year.
