It’s just another reason why they call it Colorama!

The 5K Color Run on Saturday, May 12, has a lot of attractions.

First and foremost, it’s going to be a fun, colorful experience and a good brisk walk or run that is good for your health.

It’s starts at 9 a.m., and could get you decorated for the rest of the day. At several places along the 5K run, if you choose to, you could be dusted with a brightly colored material that will make your day a real “Colorama.” Getting sprayed with the colorful material is optional.

The 5K Color Run is all in the North Dam Park area, weaving its way over the dam, around the rocks, back over the dam and then winding its way through the various roads and trail networks below the park.

You don’t have to run or walk along the highway.

But you have to get your entry form in. Do it now to save three bucks. It’s $22 now, but it will be $25 on May 12.

Go to the chamber’s website at grandcouleedam.org/colorrun and get your entry in online, or if you choose, you can drop by the chamber office and do it there.

The 5K Color Run is not a timed run, and there are no awards.

Be part of Colorama.

Oh, and you’ll get a T-shirt.
