From the Organizer
Join us for the third annual “Miles For Murals!” fun run/walk fundraiser to continue our mission to paint the town!! Come dressed in your most colorful outfit and prepare to be splashed with more color along the 1-mile route! Awards will be given to the most colorful contestants at the end of the race. All participants will receive a “Paint The Town, Kennett” bracelet upon registration. Your support is bringing color to Kennett as we Paint the Town!
The Miles for Murals 1-mile color run/walk will start at the side of The Bistro, home of our first mural celebrating Kennett. Come early for selfies! We will run/jog/walk/mosey down to loop around the Jones Park Bandstand - the site of our next mural! After we see Painting the Town in progress at the bandstand, we'll turn back to finish at Mitchell Park behind the Sheryl Crow Aquatic Center.
Plan to check out all the fun at the Fall into Arts Festival after the color run!
There will be shuttles between Jones Park and the Courthouse Square for all to check out the Kennett Kruisers car show and enjoy the Fall Into Arts Festival.
The run will not be timed. You must register online through a RunSignUp Account. Registration will be open until the start of the run 9:30am September 12. Allow at least 10-15 minutes to register if you wait until race morning!
