Girls on the Run ® of Gaston County

learn. dream. live. run.

Locations


Locations are determined by the Council Director and Board of Advisors. Sites must provide at least two volunteer coaches who will be trained by Girls on the Run of Gaston County, a contact person, a safe place for running (this does not have to be a track), a rainy-day location, meeting space, and assistance with advertising and registration.

Due to the rapid growth of Girls on the Run of Gaston County, all schools must provide an active contact person willing to assist with registration and be the liasion between the Director and the site!
