Important Info to Note
Girls on the Run 2024 Information
Volunteer to be a Girls on the Run coach for Lothrop School this spring! The impact of a Girls on the Run volunteer coach is as boundless as it is beautiful. Girls on the Run is an after school program that uses a research based curriculum to empower, increase self-worth and spark joy in its participants.
Not a runner? Haven’t coached before? No problem! Girls on the Run VT (GOTRVT) provides training, easy to follow lesson plans, supplies and support for a transformational season. Our season begins the week of March 18th, and ends with a celebratory 5K on Saturday June 8th in Manchester. The team will meet twice weekly for 90 minute sessions to connect, move, learn and have FUN! Fun fact, this is GOTRVT’s 25th anniversary season!
Coaches:
We do require 2 coaches to be present at each practice, and highly encourage having 3 coaches registered for when life happens, whether one coach gets sick or has plans to be out on a practice day.
Registration fee:
For the registration fee, we do not want finances to be a barrier to girls getting the benefit of participating in our program. Caregivers have the option to utilize a payment plan and a sliding scale within the registration form. Coach teams can also seek out funds to lower the registration fee equally for all participants, in which case the sliding scale and payment plan are still available to caregivers.
Key Dates:
Coach registration opens: November 7, 2023
In-person Coach Training: early February 2024
Participant Registration opens: February 28, 2024
Season begins: Week of March 18, 2024
5K Celebration in Manchester: June 8, 2024
Coach registration is now open. Visit gotrvt.org/coach to learn more or sign up to volunteer. Questions? Contact GOTRVT at anne@girlsontherunvermont.org or 802-871-5664.
