Hello 3-6th Grade Girls (and families)!
We are excited to announce the return of the Girls on the Run program at Calais this Spring! If you're new to GOTR, it's a curriculum-based program that utilizes the power of running to provide you with the tools to celebrate yourself, honor your unique voice, and recognize your special gifts! Regardless of athletic ability, this is a group that will get you to have fun with other girls while you exercise, share experiences, and challenge yourself to be physically and mentally stronger.
The program will run T/Th March 25-June10 right after school. All girls in grades 3-6th grade are welcome to join, though we will have to limit the group to 15 girls. Registration materials will be going home this Friday - please fill them out and bring them to one of our Early Registration Events.
Last year, we were able to raise enough money to bring the registration costs down significantly. This year, there is an $80 cost per girl to join the program, but we are again working on grants and fundraising to subsidize this cost! Our goal is $600, which will bring the individual registration cost down by 50%, or to $40 per girl. Payment will not be due until April 1st, and we will announce an update to the fee amount before that time. Thanks to GOTR VT fundraising efforts last year, two full scholarships are available for families with exceptional need – Please see Stacey if you would like to know more about this.
If you are interested in donating to help girls participate, please talk to our coaches - every little bit helps.
We also welcome parent volunteers as assistant coaches!
Please feel free to contact our coaches with any questions, Stacey Potter: spotter@u32.org Phyllis Tillinghast: PTillinghast@u32.org
