What is the Color Run?

It is the Xavier Elementary Home and School Association's (HSA) main fundraiser AND community-building event! It is a colorful night of fun and fellowship raising money to support our elementary schools, families, and staff!

When does the fun happen? Thursday, September 28, 2023, from 5:00 - 7:00 PM.

What happens? XES students run through a course while XES faculty and staff throw color on them! After the running, there is a Color Burst Party where all students gather in the middle of the field to toss color up in celebration.

How does this event raise money?

• Students are asked to seek donations.
• HSA sponsorships and Color Run sign sponsorships are sold.
• Color packets are sold for the Color Burst Party at the end.
• There is a 50/50 raffle.

What are the goals?

• To raise operating money for the Home and School Association. The goal is that enough money is raised to fund all of the year's major activities so that families aren't repeatedly asked to pay for things. The goal is $40,000.

• To bring everyone together for a fun event!    This is a well-attended event so kids and families will be talking about the fun for a long time!

What to expect:

• Students to run in age-appropriate heats.
• A Color Burst Party after the running.
• Photo opportunities with Frankie the Hawk.
• Snacks and water for purchase (note, just snacks, not a full meal!)
• Tons of fun and color with fellow Xavier families and faculty and staff.

What to wear: clothes that can get colorful! (The color shouldn't stain as it is a powder, but please be aware, it is messy fun!)

Free t-shirts will not be provided to students this year due to costs, but Xavier t-shirts will be available for purchase.

Anything may be worn, but light colors will show the color better. Good shoes to run in!
