Color The Gorge Planned For Saturday

The Color The Gorge 5K run and walk will take place for the second time in The Dalles on Saturday.  About 1,000 people took part last year in the event that was put on by The Dalles Area Chamber of Commerce in conjunction with a national organization, but this year the Chamber has taken it in house.  Chamber CEO Lisa Farquharson says runners are sprayed with a powdered ink at certain locations during the run, leaving their white race t-shirt filled with color when it’s done.  The Mid-Columbia Health Foundation is helping sponsor the event, and a portion of the proceeds will go to the Level The Playing Field campaign.  The event begins at 10 a.m. Saturday at Lewis and Clark Festival Park, and to register go to colorthegorge5k.com.  Use the coupon code radio to get a discount on registration.
