Girls on the Run for 3rd-5th Grade Girls
After taking the fall off from programming, Girls on the Run Sonoma County (GOTRSC) is launching our spring season. GOTRSC is a leader in delivering evidence-based, life skills curriculum to girls of all abilities. Through various sites throughout Sonoma County, we have served more than 8,000 girls since it was founded 2007.
For the spring 2021 season, GOTRSC is offering a flexible programming model to accommodate the changing and unpredictable school year due to the pandemic. Registration for the season opens 1 January at https://www.raceplanner.com/register/index/GOTR-SonomaCounty-S21-Program. And, we are still taking applications for more alternative community sites. For information on starting a team, email info@gotrsonomacounty.org.
We are ready to bring critical social-emotional programming to Sonoma County girls at a time when they need it the most. We have adapted based on the recommendations of local health officials and decisions of local governments and school districts.
With our flexible programming option, GOTR after-school programming can be delivered in-person as in the past, with enhanced safety measures including physical distancing modifications. Should we need to suspend in-person gathering, the program will easily transition to a virtual model, with lessons that mirror the in-person program. This fluid programming model ensures that participants will experience the social, emotional, and physical outcomes of the program while allowing local teams to adjust to changes in the school and community health guidelines throughout the season.
Because of the recommendations and mandates of the county, teams will not meet at school locations this year and will meet at local parks. Another change is that teams will be smaller in size with only 10 girls per team rather than the usual 15-20. This change will allow for easier social distancing.
Volunteer coaches will receive the training and materials required to provide girls a safe, trauma-sensitive space to learn valuable life lessons and be active.
