Observer photo/Stuart Hedstrom COLOR RUN FOR BRAYSON -- A group of 57 runners/walkers, 20 Foxcroft Academy football players and five coaches volunteering, six Foxcroft Academy cheerleader volunteers, and 12 SeDoMoCha School staff members helping -- for 100 total -- braved the cold on the morning of Sunday, Nov. 11 for the 3K SeDo. Color Run. The event raised $1,724 for the family of fourth-grader Brayson Dunton who is undergoing treatments for cancer. Dunton was able to send the white T-shirt-wearing participants off via bullhorn as they covered a course through Dover-Foxcroft, and along the way the runners/walkers had colored powder thrown at them.
