Winding through Ferndale and taking place the morning before Ferndale Pride, the run/walk is meant for everyone of all ages who supports diversity & acceptance, anti-bullying programs, and who believes we can not be complete until all persons are included. Wearing supplied white t-shirts, as participants pass 6 different stations along the course, volunteers will throw a different colored non-toxic powdered paint at their shirts...providing a colorful souvenir of the event. You will get MESSY!
A family-friendly event, we also have a 2k kids' run/walk (kids of all ages, of course). All proceeds from the event go to four area non-profit organizations: The Ferndale Area Chamber of Commerce, the Ferndale Community Foundation, Affirmations and Upstander, an anti-bullying program established by the Friendship Circle. The run will be loosely timed, but runners will not be placed. PLEASE NOTE: Space is limited so it is highly recommended that you register in advance and not wait until the day of the event.
