News Article: Girls on the Run looking for Volunteers

home > back to news

- 2/5/08

Girls on the Run is looking for adult female volunteers to facilitate and coach an all girls running program starting the week of March 24th until the week of June 9th. Program sites are located throughout Bellingham and greater Whatcom County and meet once or twice a week depending on program location.

We provide thorough training for our coaches before each session; covering logistics of the program, general tips about coaching and the program curriculum. As Girls on the Run is an international program, there is an easy-to-follow, well-developed and well-researched curriculum which we follow that is designed to teach valuable life lessons to girls in grads 3rd through 5th. Lessons include subjects such as emotional health, values, cooperation, and standing up for oneself. The program finishes with a celebration event that includes a fun 5k run/walk event.

If you would like a coach application call or email Amber at 733-8630 or
