September 17, 2018 - Mariposa County 4-H will host the inaugural Color Me Green 5k/2.5k Run/Walk.  The race will conclude the National 4-H Week. National 4-H week is October 7-13, 2018 and is intended to bring awareness of what 4-H has to offer.  Look for local 4-H clubs to have window displays at specified locations within the community.

Join in the fun with your family, friends, and community members and get showered with green dye at different markers throughout the race.  This year’s Color Me Green 5k/2.5K Fun Run/Walk will start and finish at the Historic Mariposa Courthouse.  Each participant will receive a Color Me Green t-shirt as part of the registration.

The Color Me Green 5K Run is a state-wide service learning opportunity specific to the improvement of health. With the support of adult leaders, youth organize and execute a 5K run/walk in their community. The theme, "Color Me Green" refers to the green powder used to splash runners who complete the run, in the spirit of "color runs".
