After School Programs
The Encinal After School Activities coordinator is searching for parent volunteers to coach Encinal's group for Girls on the Run. You do not need to be a runner to be a successful coach for Girls on the Run. You will serve as a role model for girls by showing up prepared and on time, listening attentively, having a positive demeanor and outlook and by leading a healthy lifestyle! You will encourage the girls and coach them on proper stretching, explore emotional issues faced by girls their age, and discuss the importance of nutrition and physical activity. Don't worry, this will all be covered in coach training.
To learn more and to apply by Jan. 23, click here.
