Organiser's Description
The Tyburn Academy Crusaders will hold their Inaugural Crusaders United Color Run to support the United Way of Cayuga County and Tyburn Academy. Tyburn Academy, a small private Catholic School in Auburn, N.Y. fosters a community rich in the Gospel spirit of service and charity. As such, the students have chosen this fundraiser elevating the standard to justly serve their school and the community it is housed within.
Half of the proceeds from this event will support the mission at Tyburn Academy while the other half are designated to the United Way of Cayuga County to support two funding Pillars: Financial Stability and Community Resilience. These two pillars focus on ensuring Cayuga County residents have the tools to thrive in the workplace such as improved literacy skills, virtual training programs, and transportation for seniors and disabled neighbors. These programs also address emergency needs like food, clothing, and shelter for neighbors who have survived flood and fire damage to their homes as well as energy assistance for those facing utility shut offs.
Register today and UNITE with the Crusaders to support them in their mission of service while also supporting the United Way in their mission to improve lives. Register today and join the Crusaders United in Color and run (or walk)!
In an effort to mobilize _all_ of our community, there are 3 opportunities for you, your family, and your friends to participate and show that you are UNITED and care with Color!
Option 1:
Join us for a traditional 5K color run (or leisurely walk)at Everest Park in Auburn, New York. As you navigate this racecourse, you will come across color stations where folks will tag you with color, showing they appreciate you uniting and caring with color to support both of these local nonprofit organizations! Although this color run is generally an untimed event, for those that are interested, there will be one timer at the finish line highlighting the time. Participants can choose to run or walk throughout the course, both of which will be able to UNITE, care with color, and experience the fun! Registration is $35 for an individual, $30 per individual in a team of 3 or more (plus fees).
Option 2:
Join us virtually (well sort of!) for the 5K from wherever you are! Have a friend tag you with color from the bags included in your registration packet before beginning your race and then again as you cross the finish line! Lets see how many folks UNITE and care from afar! Be sure to snap a picture of your personal 5K and send it via Facebook Messenger to Crusaders United Color Run. Look for your picture to be highlighted on the Facebook page to see how far UNITING and caring with color can reach! Registration is $35 for an individual, $30 per individual in a team of 3 or more (plus fees).
Option 3:
For our friends 8 years and younger, we have a smaller racecourse where they can UNITE and show they care with color. The youth race will start around 9:45 am, after the traditional race is complete. Register your kids in the Crusader Kids United in Color Run/Walk and teach them the importance of caring for the communities they live in, while having FUN! They will have the opportunity to run/walk, albeit a smaller route, through the beautiful Everest Park, where they will come across stations and volunteers who will tag them with color. There is no age minimum on UNITING and caring with color! Registration is $20 (plus fees) for youth 8 years and younger.
