Girls in grades 3, 4, and 5 are invited to participate in the Spring Season of Girls on the Run! We are looking to create a Lafayette team of 6-12 girls.
Lafayette GOTR Team Meetings are Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:30-4pm, and the season starts the week of March 13th and ends the week of May 22nd, 2023 with a 5K Team Run.
Girls on the Run inspires girls of all abilities to recognize their individual strengths, while building a sense of connection in a team setting. Volunteer coaches facilitate lessons that blend physical activity with life skill development to enable girls to adapt to whatever comes their way. At the end of the season, the team completes a 5K together, which provides a tangible sense of accomplishment and sets a confident mindset into motion.
Parents can visit this website to register their girls for the program HERE. Last day to register is March 20th at midnight.
Reach out to Ms. Thurston with any questions!
