Fun, Fun, and MORE FUN! The Color Me Cheerful Fun Run is staged at the Pageant Area of beautiful Lake Ponca in Ponca City, OK. Participants will traverse this one-mile trail while getting showered with powdered paint at 3 color stations! Music and prizes will add to the excitement. The event will conclude with a giant color 'bomb' party where all entrants throw paint in the air for a huge cloud of color!
Professional photography will be provided by NP Studios-Oklahoma Photographer. You and your friends can pose for a great photo memory at the beginning and/or end of the race. You will also be able to look for yourself in action photos on-line after the event. Website and order information will be included in your packet!
With an early start time and plenty of shade, you are certain to beat the heat and #LiveInColor. Invite your friends to register. Dress as colorfully and creatively as you like! This is sure to be fun for the entire family. Don't miss it! #CheerfulRun17
