MTMS to Host a 5K Fun Color Run/Walk October 22

The Manheim Township Middle School (MTMS) PTO will hold its first ever 5K Fun Color Run & Walk on Saturday, October 22 on the Manheim Township Middle School and High School campus in Manheim Township. Runners will start at 10:00 AM and walkers at 10:30AM. This event is open to everyone and costs $25 to enter. All proceeds from this event will benefit the MTMS PTO, which hosts events and supports students and teachers through the school year.

The race will be untimed, and participants are encouraged to dress up and have fun. “This event is meant to bring the community together and to encourage people to be active,” said Holly Stockwell, Co-PTO President of the MTMS. “This event is also different from other 5K’s because it will feature five color stations.”

A color station is a point in the color run that runners pass through where volunteers will throw color powder on them. The color zones are optional, and runners have the choice of staying on the main path without going through the color zone.

Food trucks will be available for purchases and water will be provided for FREE thanks to event sponsors. In the event of inclement weather, the PTO will arrange a time for a race packet pickup, so participants can complete a color run on their own.
