Event details and schedule
The approximate 5k fun run/walk is not timed (although there will be a clock at the finish line) and getting powdered is your award; runners will start on the Lassiter track at 9AM rain or shine. The run starts at the Lassiter High School stadium and goes through 3 color powder stations along the route. Registration is $30. Run-day registration is $35. Early registration by 10/11 guarantees you a t-shirt in your size.
Packet of Tee-shirt & goodie bag is available on run day, starting at 7:30 AM, at the Lassiter stadium, or on Friday night, October 18 from 6-8pm, at the Lassiter stadium gate. We will position ourselves outside the ticket gate for the football game so you can register or pick up your packet and t-shirt before you go into the game.
We use non-toxic, non-rash-inducing corn starch with food coloring. Participants are encouraged to wear glasses to avoid unwanted powder in your eyes and face, a bandana is useful as well.
The nature trails are beautiful but have exposed roots and rocks in places, use caution. Strollers and animals are not allowed on the course.
A clean station will be setup near the finish area but you will want to bring a towel for your car ride home.
Come prepared to get powdered! Rain or shine! After the run, enjoy food, music, games, and vendor exhibits.
