NCSF Announces the Second Annual NC Color Run

The New Canaan High School Scholarship Foundation (NCSF) will host its Second Annual NC Color Run on April 28, 2018, at 9am. In this town wide event, students and adults of all ages will run/walk in either the Kids’ Color Dash, 8 miles, or the NC Color Run, 5K. Both events will have a start/finish line at the high school and will feature color stations along the route where volunteers will blast participants with a powdered washable paint. There will also be food and a D.J. to celebrate at the start/finish line.

“I am thrilled to announce and support the NC Color Run this year, as it is our goal to bring the community together and help us reach our fundraising goals this year.” “Over 1200 people ran with us last year.” “We hope you can join us this year,“ states William Egan, New Canaan High School Principal and Chairman of NCSF.
