Color Blast 5k Run/Walk in South Lake Tahoe on Saturday

Tahoe Youth and Family Services is holding their Color Blast Run this Saturday at Lake Tahoe Community College. This fun, fundraiser is a 5k walk/run around the LTCC campus, and it's not just any 5k walk/run! Participants get doused with color around the course so when they cross the finish line they're covered from head to toe in color!

The original run was postponed to October 11 due to unhealthy air in September from the King Fire. This weekend will be a great fall day for the event and it's not too late to sign up.

Adults are $35, Teens 13 to 18 are $20 and under 13 are $10. Save $5 off each person when signing up as a team of 4 or more. Signups are on line on the Color Blast website or in person at the Tahoe Youth & Family Services located at 1021 Fremont Avenue, South Lake Tahoe, CA and their phone number is 530-541-2445.

Also available are Swag Bags for $7...a special TYFS bag with sunglasses, extra color, water bottle and more. The glasses complete the outfit for runners who's suggested apparel is anything white. The color will show great on white clothing! Though the color is safe and considered washable, it is suggested to wear items that you won't mind ending up with a trace of color.

Registration is available on the day of the event at LTCC starting at 8 a.m. The Race starts at 9 a.m.
