From the Organizer
The Harmony Parks Board is delighted to announce our 3rd annual Color Blast Fun Run at Sippel Reservoir Park in Harmony, PA. We invite you to be part of this family-friendly, un-timed event, featuring a scenic 1.5-mile course that includes a portion of the historic Harmony trail. As you journey through the course, prepare to be showered from head to toe in a vibrant array of colored powder. Following the fun run, the festivities will continue with a lively colored-powder toss dance party. Get ready for a celebration filled with music and an epic colored-powder throw, creating amazing color combinations.
Best of all, your participation will contribute to a wonderful cause—proceeds from the event will go toward supporting Harmony's parks, hiking trail, and canoe launch. Join us for a day filled with laughter and fun with family and friends, all while making a meaningful contribution to our community. We can't wait to see you there!
