Description
Join Us April 7th and help us paint the town at a colorfully fun 5k walk/run to support CCARE, the local animal shelter in Clay Center! A color race is a fun, un-timed race in which runners, walkers and their doggies alike are covered head to toe with powdered color at each kilometer! You'll be totally colorful by the end of the race, but no worries, the color rinses right off with water!
Walk or run, it's all for FUN! This is not a competitive race. If you only want to do part of the race, that's okay too!
Feel free to bring your dog! All dogs must be leashed and have proof of vaccinations.
All proceeds benefit Clay County Animal Rescue and Education Center (CCARE).

About CCARE
Clay County Animal Rescue & Education Center is a nonprofit 501(c)(3), volunteer driven organization dedicated to rescuing, caring for and adopting out homeless dogs into loving and responsible forever homes. We educate the public on respect for all animal life, including the importance of feral animals being spayed or neutered in order to reduce their numbers in our communities. Our organization goes beyond the confines of shelter walls to build an extensive network of knowledgeable, experienced, talented and caring individuals who share these common goals.
Our Mission: The Clay County Animal Rescue & Education Center (CCARE) is an animal care facility dedicated to improving the lives of companion animals in our communities and finding permanent and loving adoptive homes for the animals in our care. We provide a safe haven for animals in transition, serve as advocates for them and their people, work to end overpopulation and educate the public about compassion and responsibility towards all animals. CCARE strives to be a No-Kill facility where all incoming animals are evaluated, medically treated, rehabilitated when needed and euthanized only out of necessity based on the animal’s quality of life needs.
We believe in making Clay County a place where all animals are treated humanely, and every pet has a loving forever home.
We thank you for your continued support of our cause!
