Second Color Dash set for Blind River

Blind River is gearing up for is second Color Dash.  The event is a five kilometre walk or run to promote active and healthy lifestyles while also raising money.  Like it did last year, the Color Dash is again raising money for the Blind River District Health Centre.  During the run, each participant gets hit with a different colour corn starch so that by the end of the five kliks, their T-shirts are multi-coloured.  This year’s run begins June 20th at the community centre.  For registration information go online to www.blindriver.ca
