Families and friends unite for a lively day filled with colour and laughter.
On a sunny Saturday morning, Gordon Park transformed into a vibrant playground as Ellon Primary School hosted its first-ever colour fun run. This lively event attracted participants of all ages, uniting families and friends in a celebration of fun, fitness, and community spirit.
The atmosphere was electric, filled with laughter, excitement, and clouds of colourful powder that painted the participants in bright hues.
A day of fun and inclusivity
The colour fun run was designed to be an inclusive event, encouraging everyone to join in, regardless of their fitness level.
Participants could run, walk, skip, or even wheel through the obstacle-filled course, making it accessible for all. The emphasis was on enjoyment rather than competition, allowing families to bond and create lasting memories together.
Experience the joy of colour
As participants made their way through the course, they were greeted with playful obstacles and bursts of colour. The air was filled with laughter and shouts of joy as clouds of coloured powder erupted with every step. Water splashes added to the fun, ensuring that everyone was not only covered in vibrant hues but also refreshed on a warm day. The event was a sensory delight, with the sights and sounds of a community coming together to celebrate.
Capturing the moment
Local photographer Darrell Benns was on hand to capture the essence of the day, snapping photos that showcased the joy and excitement of the participants. His images reflect the spirit of the event, highlighting the smiles, laughter, and the beautiful mess that comes with a colour run. These photographs will serve as cherished memories for families and the school community, reminding them of the fun they shared.
The inaugural colour fun run at Ellon Primary School was not just an event; it was a celebration of community, inclusivity, and the joy of being active together. As the participants left Gordon Park, they carried with them not only the vibrant colours of the day but also the warmth of community spirit that will surely inspire future events.
