Colour Me Capricorn Emerald 2023

RACQ CapRescue invites you to be a part of the most colourful fun run in Emerald this year!

Run, walk, dance or stroll your way along the garden path, covering the Emerald Botanic Gardens in a cloud of colour on Sunday 7th May 2023.

There will be an energetic warm-up and 5km of colourful fun! We will have two distance options (2.5km & 5km) to cater for all ages and abilities.

All funds raised from this event go to RACQ Capricorn Helicopter Rescue. Our life-saving service, covers an area of over 350,000km2 and keeps a community of more than 300,000 people safe. Demand for our Service continues to grow and now averages 1.3 tasks per day at an operating cost of over $12 million annually. We are grateful to receive approximately 60% of our funding from the Queensland Government, however, the remaining 40% relies on our valuable partnerships, sponsors, events and donations from the amazing communities we service.

Adult, youth, team and family tickets available. Grab your friends, gather your family and get ready to create some colour.

Supported by Central Highlands Regional Council, Kestrel Coal Resources and Blackwoods.

Running not your thing, but still want to be part of the action and have loads of fun? Why not try volunteering? Contact us today for more information about our Volunteer Opportunities – email stepup@chrs.org.au.
