Spring Into Color

Join us on Saturday, April 4 for the inaugural United Way Spring Into Color 5K Fun Color Run! This fun 5K will be part of Oroville's 12th Annual Wildflower and Nature Festival. The festival shines a spotlight on local beauty and centers on the nature of Butte County. We are excited to be a part of this long-standing event.
