COLOR DASH FAQS:

What is the Color Dash?
This event is more than a fun community gathering—it directly helps local kids attend FCA camp who otherwise could not afford to go.

What makes the Color Dash special is that everyone can participate. Whether you're a runner or walker, age 5 or 105, this is a family celebration where everyone belongs. Participants move through five vibrant color stations, enjoy a bounce house and games, food trucks, live music, and an unforgettable after-dash party.

FUN, GAMES & FOOD
Who can participate?
Everyone! The event is open to all ages and abilities. Whether you’re a seasoned runner, walker, or just looking for a fun, family-friendly day out, the Color Dash is for you.
Do I need a Ticket to participate?
Yes — registration is required to take part in the Color Dash.

While the Color Dash is a fun, inclusive community event, it’s also a fundraiser for the Art Taguding Ohana FCA Camp Scholarship Fund. Every registration goes directly to send local athletes to an FCA Camp who otherwise would not be able to attend due to cost.
Do I have to run?
Absolutely not.

You can run, walk, roll, skip, dance, stroll, or vibe any way you'd like around the course. There is no timing, no pressure, and no "right" way to do the Color Dash.
Can I bring my family?
YES! The Color Dash is a family-friendly event and kids are welcome. There will be activities after the Dash to keep the fun going.
Is the event accessible?
YES – accessibility is built in by design. The course is suitable for wheelchairs, mobility aids, strollers and people who prefer to take things at a slower pace.
What do I wear?
Every participant will receive a white (branded) tshirt before the Dash begins. This will help maximum color impact, and ensure you don't have to drive home in messy clothes. Closed-toed shoes are recommended.

Pro tip: bring a change of clothes for the ride home. There will also be Color Dash swag available to purchase druing the event.
What happens after the Dash?
When you're ready to finish, head over to the Family Area, featuring:

Food Truck
Live Music
Bounce House
Kids Activities
Seating area to picnic
Photo ops
Can I volunteer at the event?
Absolutely! Email carleighrich@fca.org to see where we can get you plugged in!
Where do the event proceeds go?
All proceeds support the Art
Taguding Ohana Camp Scholarship Fund.

Last year, sponsors helped over 800 kids attend FCA camps where they experienced the hope and truth of the gospel. This year our goal is $50,000 to send even more kids.
Is the color powder safe?
Yes, the powders are made from natural, non-toxic ingredients and are safe for both people and the environment. They're also easy to wash off after the event.
