Event Description:
Ages 5 & Older
Before school is back in session, let's enjoy what's left of summer with a burst of color at our Family Fun Color Run & Cookout! This paved course will have you jogging through clouds of vibrant color powder, so start in white - but we can't guarantee you'll finish that way! Participants will have the option to complete a 1 mile, 2 mile or full 5K starting and concluding in the New Lenox Commons. Upon completion, have a delicious hot dog, chips, and a beverage while enjoying music and games on the Commons grassy knoll with family and friends. This is NOT a timed race and participants can either walk or run.
