Girls on the Run of the High Country

  GOTR-HC is on You Tube!!

Girls on the Run of the High Country is pleased to be the beneficiary of proceeds from The High Country Triple Crown. Our council is part of Girls on the Run International, a youth enrichment program with more than 80,000 participants annually. We started with our first group of girls in the High Country in September of 2009 and are thrilled with the results and feedback from both our participants and coaches.

GOTR is a life-changing, experiential learning program for girls in the 3rd-5th grade. The program combines training for a 3.1 mile running event with self-esteem enhancing, uplifting workouts. The goals of the program are to encourage positive emotional, social, mental, spiritual and physical development. The girls complete the program with a stronger sense of identity, a greater acceptance of themselves, a healthier body image and an understanding of what it means to be part of a team.

Thank you for your support of The High Country Triple Crown and Girls on the Run of the High Country.
