CCSF Color Rush

Get ready to kick off your summer with a burst of color at the 4th Annual CCSF Color Rush! This vibrant 1-mile run/walk takes over Centennial Park in picturesque Cedarburg, Wisconsin, on Wednesday, May 27, 2026. Designed for participants of all ages and fitness levels, this untimed event emphasizes fun over competition, making it the perfect family-friendly outing. You'll navigate a delightful course around the park, encountering four exciting color stations that promise to douse you in a rainbow of hues before a spectacular, colorful finish line. Typical race day conditions in late May offer pleasant highs around 68F and lows around 48F, with a low 15% chance of precipitation, ensuring comfortable and enjoyable participation.

The CCSF Color Rush is more than just a race; it's a community celebration packed with entertainment. Before the run, engage in lively games for a chance to win fantastic prizes. The festivities continue post-race with a delightful picnic in the park, where food and drinks will be available for purchase. This year promises even more excitement with new activities including outdoor games and contests, a gigantic bubble-making area, free face painting, and a henna artist. Don't forget to capture your colorful memories at the photo backdrop and compete in the post-race "most colorful contest".

Beyond the fun, your participation supports a meaningful cause. The CCSF Color Rush benefits the Cedarburg Community Scholarship Fund (CCSF), a non-profit organization that has awarded over $4,000,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors in the Cedarburg community. Join hundreds of fellow enthusiasts (last year saw over 420 participants) for an unforgettable evening celebrating students, teachers, and the start of summer, all while contributing to a brighter future for local students. The race starts at 6:00 PM from the Centennial Park Gazebo.
