Overview-CAMP

Overview

Our standard schedule is to meet 4 hours a day, 5 days a week (1/2 day program).
At Camp GOTR, girls will enjoy building friendships in a fun and inclusive setting that includes interactive lesso ns, being physically active, and expressing creativity through arts & crafts and storytelling. CAMP GOTR is for rising 3rd graders to rising 5th graders (those exiting 2nd grade to those entering 5th grade). As the themes of each week are independent of each other, girls can be registered to participate in one or both weeks of camp. Pick either week or both weeks! It's your choice! *If you would like both weeks you will have to select "Add Another Participant" before check out to register your girl(s) for both weeks. If you have any questions about the Camp GOTR experience for your girl in summer 2021, please don’t hesitate to contact us at info@girlsontheruncentralohio.org

Expect lots of games, talking, laughing and processing in addition to running at each practice. And know that when we say run, we mean run, walk, skip, roll or push, just as long as you are moving foward!

Don't let cost stop you from participating! We are committed to making Girls on the Run accessible to all who want to particpate! Thanks to generous donors and community supporters, program scholarships are available to any family who needs it, and we can also provide appropriate running shoes and attire if necessary. The online registration form will walk you through a few questions to find the fee that is right for your family based on a sliding scale.

When does the 10-week season begin?

Practices will begin in September. The culminating event will be the 5K on Saturday, November 23. More information will be shared by the GOTR staff and by your girl's coaches once the season begins.

Do girls need to attend both days each week in order to register?

Yes! Since most of our teams fill up quickly, if your girl will be unable to attend all the sessions, please save room for a girl who can, and consider joining us in a future season when she can enjoy the entire program.

Is there a way for me to sponsor a participant for a season?

Yes! As a mission-driven 501(c)3, Girls on the Run relies on generous donors in order to provide more than $30,000 in program scholarships for families in need. Click here to sponsor a participant this season.
