IMS Cares Color Run

We will host our first annual IMS Cares Color Run on Wednesday, October 20. We will be joining Cambridge Middle School as they host their fourth annual Color Run.Students that are interested in participating will have the opportunity to purchase an IMS Cares Color Run t-shirt during the week prior to the event, this coming week. The $10 purchase will cover the cost of the t-shirt and materials needed for the color run. Any additional proceeds will be donated to a cause in support of bullying prevention in schools. Any students not participating in the event will be on the sidelines cheering on the runners. Staff members are also encouraged to run the race!
