About the Event

Join us on Sunday, May 31 as the North Country Mission of Hope holds its 7th Annual Color Run!

Run through the scenic trails and trees of Rulfs Orchard in Peru, NY, passing by the berry patches with splashes of spring like color. Have fun running or walking through the orchard in a specially marked course while enjoying the apple blossoms and the explosions of color raining down on you from each of the 6 color stations throughout the run. Balloons, music, and excitement will fill the air in preparation for the 5K race.

Check-in begins at noon with the Color Run stepping off at 1pm. T-shirts will be available on-site in a variety of sizes (Adult and Youth, size selection is first-come, first-served). Special parking for competitors and spectators will be off of Telegraph Road, just east of the store and main parking lot. Online registration is $25, with race day registration available for $35. There is never a charge for children under 6. Register today and save!

All proceeds will support the Mission’s Clinic operations in Nicaragua which include a medical clinic, dentist as well as mental health services to local residents in the 13 barrios served by the Mission and sponsored students in the local schools.

About Peru

Learn more about the host city, Peru.

Peru is without a doubt one of the most captivating countries in South America. Home of the epic lost Inca citadel of Machu Picchu and the mind-blowing Nazca Lines, this country's unique past awakens the adventurer in travellers of all sorts. Its awe-inspiring scenery varies from the wild Amazon jungles to vast coastal deserts and the icy peaks of the Andes. Peru hosts a biodiversity rarely seen within the limits of a single country, with a list of spectacular wildlife far beyond the well-known llamas and circling condors. On top of all that, Peru's friendly, multi-ethnic people are a cultural treasure on their own. The enchanting mix of dozens of distinct indigenous groups, mestizos and criollos, all with their own colourful traditions and food delicacies, is an encounter you won't easily forget.
