150+ Runners Race in First Ever Color Run at RCCSD

May 10th, 2023 - The Red Creek Yearbook Club held its first ever Color Run at the Red Creek Central School District on Saturday, May 6^th. More than 150 runners came out for the race. Runners donned their white t-shirt as they ran through different color powders during checkpoints of the race.

This event was no small feat and took over a year in the making from concept to final event. The event was organized by Co - yearbook advisors Nicole and Ryan Czeck and the yearbook club students. Food trucks, raffles and bounce houses were also on hand. The plan is to host this event annually to help raise money for the Middle School and High School yearbook, to make it cheaper for families. 

"We want to say thank you to the district for allowing us to host this event, Pat Davenport and his team for all of his support and equipment, High School National Honor Society students for volunteering at the race along with set up and take down of the entire event, our amazing Red Creek Staff for volunteering to throw out color, Red Creek Business Club Students for making all of our shirts, and sponsoring our color run swag, Dave Briggs for his advice and support, as well as our food trucks: Big Awesome BBQ, SMOKE N'GRIDDLE, Muzzi's Italian Ice, and Frost Bites.

A special thank you to Family Fun Inflatables for the Bounce Houses. We would also like to thank our bronze sponsors: Red Creek Spanish Department, Red Creek Social Studies Department, Red Creek Reading Department, Red Creek Science Department, Red Creek Transportation Department, Girls on the Run, Frost Bites, F&F Bargains, Fair Haven Front Porch, And One Photo.
