What better way is there to celebrate Spring Break than by breaking a sweat on a beautiful beach?

Okuma Beach will be hosting Color Fun Run on Sat., March 28. While winter was the season for competitive races on the island, the spring season will be all about having a good time. This 1.5-mile run will be a fun race where anybody can be a winner.

Okuma Beach is recognized as one of the best beaches on the island. Running along the beautiful coastline while soaking up the sun in a relaxed atmosphere will be a great experience.

Mark your calendars and celebrate the spring together!
