About Girls on the Run Greater Oregon
Physical activity-based youth development program that inspires girls in 3rd through 8th grade to recognize their strengths through fun, interactive lessons led by trained volunteer coaches. Teams meet twice a week after school each fall and spring and finish the season with a 5K. Girls on the Run Greater Oregon serves teams statewide, including Bend and south Deschutes County schools.
Volunteering looks like
Volunteer coaches lead small teams of girls through a 10-week season of lessons that blend running and games with life skills, ending with a celebratory 5K. You don't need to be a runner; coaches work in teams of two or three, get full training and curriculum, and must be 18+ with a background check. Volunteers also help at the season-end 5K.
