Parent Volunteers Needed for Girls on the Run Spring 2026 Season

Girls on the Run is returning to Westwood this spring, and we are seeking parent volunteers at each school to help bring this impactful program to life. Girls on the Run will be offered at all four Westwood elementary schools for girls in grades 3–5, and at Thurston Middle School as Heart & Sole for grades 6–8.
 
Girls on the Run combines movement, conversation, and connection to help girls build confidence, resilience, and a strong sense of self. No running or coaching experience is required, we are simply looking for parents who are passionate about supporting girls and fostering a positive, inclusive environment.
 
The Spring 2026 season will begin the week of March 29, 2026. Practices meet twice per week for 8 weeks, with schedules varying by site. The season concludes with a community Celebratory 5K, scheduled for Saturday, May 30 or Sunday, May 31 (TBD).
 
Families will receive registration information from their school principal in February. Parents interested in volunteering or learning more are encouraged to contact Erin Colleran at collerancoaching@gmail.com
