Color Me Green is a Purdue Extension/Indiana 4-H Youth Development-sponsored color run being held across Indiana between March and July. As in other color runs that have become popular across the country, runners will be showered with green powder at various stations along the run. Color Me Green will be using green dyes for the event. The race is untimed and has no winners or prizes – it’s all done in the spirit of fun.
The Hamilton County 4-H Fair is organized and sponsored by the Hamilton County 4-H Council, Inc., and Purdue Extension Hamilton County. For more information on the 4-H Fair or the Purdue Extension Service, contact Purdue Extension Hamilton County at (317) 776-0854 or visit extension.purdue.edu/hamilton.
