DC Multisport Color Fun Run to Benefit Dove Recovery House

Lace up your sneakers and get ready to walk, run, and splash into a rainbow of fun! Registration is now open for the 2026 Color Fun Run in Ferdinand, a lively, family-friendly event that combines fitness, fun, and a meaningful cause. The event will take place on Saturday, April 4, beginning at 10am, inviting the community to come together for a colorful celebration of giving back.

Proceeds from this year’s Color Fun Run will benefit Dove Recovery House in Jasper, an organization dedicated to providing recovery support services for women overcoming substance use challenges. By participating, runners and walkers of all ages can enjoy a joyful experience while helping support women on their journey toward a fresh start.

Participants will complete a fun run or walk along the walking path at 18th Street Park in Ferdinand, where bursts of bright color await at checkpoints throughout the route. This non-competitive event is designed for everyone—from seasoned runners to families and friends looking for a unique way to spend the day together. While there are no place-based awards, participants earn a ticket for each lap completed (up to three laps) to enter for a chance to win a variety of prizes donated by local businesses.
