Synchro Stars fundraiser
Organizing first-ever Colour Run
T
he plans for Weyburn’s first-ever Colour Run are underway, and the Weyburn Synchro Stars will be hosting the colourful fundraiser. “I have seen and participated in a few Colour Runs, and feel that this would be a great community event,” said Tanya Pohl, president of the Synchro Stars Synchronized Swimming Club. Their fundraiser is called “Colour Splash” and it is planned for Sunday, June 5. Tanya noted that not all the details of the fundraiser are finalized yet, but the “Colour Splash” will start and end at the Tom Zandee Sports Arena. While participating in the Colour Run fundraiser, Colour Runners are doused from head to toe in different colors. Colour Runners can choose to run or walk in the fundraiser, since it is all about fun. The “Colour Splash” will be five kilometres in length. Registration is now open for the fundraiser. There are early bird registration prices too, with prices set at $40 for adults and $20 for ages seven to 13 when the runner registers before April 15. After that date, registrations are $50 for adults and $25 for ages seven to 13. There is no cost for children under the age of six to register, but an adult must be registered with the child. Registrations are available online at the Synchro Stars website: www. w ey bu r n s y n c h r o s t a r s .
com. Further details on the event will be updated at the Synchro Stars website, or on their Facebook page. There is still a lot of planning for the fundraiser, in addition to seeking runner registrations. “We will be looking for volunteers to help make our race day a successful one,” said Pohl. Volunteers are also being sought, to provide assistance with the different parts of the Colour Run. There will be a couple of colour stations that will require volunteers, plus a lunch after the fundraiser. Any businesses or organizations that want to help support the “Colour Splash” by becoming a sponsor are also encouraged to contact Tanya Pohl for more information. She noted that sponsorships are available for the colour stations, T-shirts, prizes and other parts of the race. The Weyburn Synchro Stars provide the community with high quality synchronized swimming programming. Their goal is to foster fun, sportsmanship, team spirit and goalsetting. They ensure that athletes are exposed to all levels of skills and opportunity. They ensure that the club’s human, physical and financial resources are managed in a responsible manner with an emphasis on long term planning. Their aim is to maintain effective communication within the club membership and externally with other agencies, partners and the media.
