We encourage Gay-Straight Alliances and advisors to come to Wickham Park in Manchester on May 6th, where participants can run (or walk!) in the race, cheerfrom the sidelines, and, as always, socialize with GSA friends. Bring your LGBT pride, a "can-do" attitude, your most fabulous costumes, and get ready to support True Colors and your GSA this spring!

 

Registration is $25 per runner/walker. Each participant receives a T-shirt, access to cool prizes, food and the opportunity to make a difference for LGBT and ally youth across CT. Register at the Hartford Marathon Website:  I want to run for TRUE COLORS!!
