The Get Movin' Crew News

Have you ever considered adding a little color to your Fun Run? Color Runs are a simple way to take your jog-athon/ run-athon / walk-athon to the next level! All you need are some white t-shirts, volunteers to toss the colored powder and the willingness to be silly with your next fundraiser. Color Runs are popular enough now that most people recognize it and are more than excited to be a part of one. So, gather your team, invest in a little stain remover (powder is easy to lift from skin and clothes), and get to planning your next Color Run!

TGMC Teams Up With Color Blaze!

Did you know that we have a partnership with Color Blaze?This is the #1 wholesale provider of colored powder for Color Runs across the U.S., Canada, and beyond

Color Blaze sells wholesale color powder in both individual packets as well as in bulk for those large, school-wide Color Runs that students love so much! Color Blaze provides top-quality products, fast shipping, and friendly customer service if there is any issue in turning your event from drab to technicolor!

For any of our clients planning on doing a Color Run, it is best to get your color powder from a provider like Color Blaze. Buying color packets or bulk powder is always the easiest and most cost-effective method for Color Run/Race/Walk events where a ½ pound of powder per participant is recommended if you plan on having 3 or less color stations.

If your event will have 4 or more color stations, Color Blaze recommends at least ¾ pounds per participant. 5 color stations require a minimum of 1 pound per person.

• Order color powder that matches your school colors!
• 100% biodegradable, FDA approved dyes make it safe and easy to clean up.

Why We Love Color Runs

We know we’re not alone in loving Color Runs. This colorful trend has swept the nation and revamped races. It has gotten people off the couch, invited kids into the racing world, and added a whole lot of fun into the experience of running! Jumping on this trend also has some great benefits for schools looking to add some new energy into their Fun Run.

Color Runs also provide some awesome benefits for PTO/PTA groups:

Recognition: Color Runs are an easily recognizable event and just the mention of hosting a Color Run will immediately elevate your athon fundraiser and have the potential to grow participation and donations!

Participation: Students are far more likely to sign up to participate in your Fun Run if they know they will be showered with color! It takes away part of the burden of running and focuses more on the fun – the point is not to do laps but to race to the next color station to get drenched in color!

Energy: When you have a Color Run, the energy level of your event takes care of itself.

The music, the color, the running, the dancing and jumping and fun make your event a memorable experience that everyone will want to be a part of – whether that be students running, parents volunteering, or community members donating to your cause!
