The Meecheway 5K COLOR RUN VOL. 3 is coming Saturday, October 10, 2026!
We encourage our community to unite in the race to keep Scouting strong and Camp Lakota stable and viable for our community.
100 percent of the proceeds go directly to Black Swamp Area Council Scouting programs to build the next generation of community leaders. This year, we have an opportunity to cover more ground than ever before.
This is our 3rd Annual COLOR RUN and after witnessing the fun had by all last year, you do not want to miss out! Anyway, don't hesitate, sign up to run or walk!
Check in beginning at 8:30 A.M.
Start at 9:00 a.m. SHARP!
*Not available to run, jog, or walk? Choose a donation instead!
If you have any questions, please contact us via email at cspieles91@gmail.com
Included in your run package is a t-shirt for the race, bananas, and fresh donuts! Prizes are given out to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place Male and Female as well as fastest male and female 15 years old or younger! Sign ups within two weeks of race day cannot guarantee a t-shirt.
