Looking for volunteer coaches for the GIRLS ON THE RUN program. GOTR is a national program for girls in 3rd, 4th and 5th grade. The curriculum teaches the basics of running while also teaching young women about self-esteem, teamwork, confidence, positive body image, nutrition, etc., all while training for a 5K race as the final product. Girls stay after school two days a week for an hour and a half with staff and parent volunteer coaches. During this time, girls participate in physical activities that build team rapport and also train to be able to complete a 5K at the end of the 12 week sessions. The days are to be determined by the volunteer coaches. We will run meetings from 3:30-5:00 on those two days. Your commitment would only be one afternoon for 12 weeks. You would also need to attend a free Saturday training, get CPR certified (also free and provided for you on a Saturday,) and run the 5K race with our girls. The curriculum is all spelled out for you in a nice little binder and you are given all the lesson plans you need. There is no cost to coaches. If interested, see Melody Shelton, School Counselor soon! We will also need runners to sign up for program. If interested in either, please post here, send me a msg or email me. Registration will start soon. IF YOU HAVE COACHED GOTR OR YOUR DAUGHTER HAS TAKEN PART IN THE PROGRAM BEFORE, FEEL FREE TO POST YOUR THOUGHTS BELOW! Thank you!
