Your Rainbow Run shirt may loose it’s color. We’ve heard from families that despite their best efforts at following the instructions, the powder color used during the color run just doesn’t “stick.” If this has happened to your shirt, we’re offering to tie dye it with you!
We are using Tulip dye and the only preparation is that you need to wash the shirt before coming to dye it. We will be using the bullseye pattern to tie shirts and if you would like a different style feel free to tie it before you come.
Parents must accompany students. Please review the available slots below and click on the button to sign up. Thank you!
We need volunteers! Come join join us to help the kids with their Shirts. No Tie Dye skill is required. We will have our Master Tie Dyer Jill Crist will have examples of how to tie dye.
