Live United Color War
On Saturday, Sept. 28, Live United is hosting a color obstacle course. This event is similar to the famous Color Run, but rather than a 5K, it’s a fun course with color being thrown and music playing throughout.
The event begins at 10:30 a.m. at the intramural fields. The cost for pre-registration is $12 and day-of registration is $15. Cost includes two color packets and a t-shirt will be given to the first 300 people.
Pre-registration and additional information is available online at facebook.com/events/563163687065789.
