ORGANIZATION: GIRLS ON THE RUN OF THE DFW METROPLEX

  • 8 people are interested

Girls on the Run uses running and other physical activities as a platform for teaching life skills and promoting holistic health outcomes for girls. Prior to the start of the program, volunteer coaches participate in extensive coach training which prepares them to build relationships with girls, create a positive, inclusive environment and support individual improvement. During Camp GOTR, girls will enjoy building friendships in a fun and inclusive setting that includes interactive games, being physically active, and expressing creativity through arts and crafts and storytelling. Led by caring and qualified Girls on the Run coaches, Camp GOTR provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for girls to develop self-confidence, have fun with friends and learn life skills they can use now and as they grow.

Camp GOTR: Girls Have Power

During this dynamic week-long session, girls will learn about the power they possess to recognize emotions in themselves and others, and how to express their feelings through fun and interactive activities such as "Emotion Detective", building workshops, creative skits, and more!

Volunteers are needed to lead groups of rising 3-5th grade girls in lessons, games and activities. Volunteers will be paired in groups of 4-6 and will be needed for the entire week. Camp GOTR will be held June 18-22 from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm.
