It might have been chilly, but that didn’t stop the runners from getting out there and supporting their school. Key Club held their second Color Run for Liberty and fundraised money to support them throughout the year.

The Color Run was held on Saturday, Oct. 22, at Liberty High School. The run had an outcome of about 70 runners.

“This is our major fundraiser of the year,” said Ms. Borders. “It helps pay for the projects we do throughout the year.”

At the end of the run this year, there was a bit of a twist. After finishing the race, runners were able to participate in small minute to win it games, just as a little congratulations at the end of the run.

“I had volunteered last year for the color run,” said Maya Schnable, vice president of Key Club. “This year I was an officer and got to see the behind the scene of setting up, and showing the volunteers where to go and what to do.”

The Color Run had about 50 volunteers this year, which was a mix of student, teachers, parents, and others who just wanted to help out.
