What  should  I  wear?  

You  can  wear  whatever  you  want,  but  wearing  all  white  looks  great  when  you’re  covered  in  paint!  DON’T  FORGET  THE  COSTUME  CONTEST!  

Will  the  color  stain  my  clothes,  shoes,  or  makeup?  

If  you  want  a  lot  of  color  to  hit  your  shirt,  plan  to  run  or  walk  closer  to  the  color  throwers.  The  paint  throwers  will  be  stationed  every  ¼  mile  around  the  campus  loop.    

Tip:  If  you  love  the  final  color  of  your  shirt,  you  can  also  preserve  it  by  spraying  it  with  vinegar  and  then  ironing  it  before  you  wash  it.  We  suggest  wearing  clothes  and  shoes  that  you  don’t  mind  getting  color  on.  

Will  the  color  get  in  my  car?  

Bring  a  towel  or  some  plastic  bags  along,  and  you’ll  be  just  fine.  However,  if  you  do  get  some  in  your  vehicle,  it  can  be  dusted  away  or  vacuumed  easily.
