The Color Dash 5k  will be held Aug. 23 at Rhinelander High School. The event begins at 10 a.m. with packet pickup beginning at 8 a.m. Cost is $40/person, $35/person if registered as a team, or $85 per family of three people (additional $15/person up to six people). Registration is available online at www.theColorDash5k.com.

This family friendly event is not timed. As participants run or walk the course, Dasher-Splasher volunteers will splash them with special colorful dust. 

Fifty percent of the proceeds from The Color Dash will go to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwestern Wisconsin’s Northwoods Branch. All funds raised will support mentoring for children facing adversity in the Northwoods communities serving Vilas, Oneida, Price and Taylor counties.
