From the Organizer
This is a sensory friendly, inclusive, untimed, FUN RUN! Anyone that completes the entire course will receive an award. There will be several color stations throwing bright powder, a foam station, and bubble stations! This year is our 21st year anniversary celebration and we will be throwing Augusta Levy a birthday party prior to the race from 3-5 PM. We will have inflatables, balloon animals, face painting, music, and more!
The race itself begins at 5 PM. The route will begin at the waterfront and cut onto the trail to avoid any roadwork and construction. All participants that pre-register by June 1st will receive a shirt, sunglasses, and an Augusta Levy Autism Ambassador sticker. Pre-registration stays open online until June 19th, but T-shirts will not be available after the May 31 deadline. Registration will be accepted day of, but t-shirts will not be available. We are so excited for another year of the Spectrum of Color 5K Fun Run, benefitting the Shawn Ramsay Autism Scholarship, with a 21st year birthday celebration included!
