Steelcase made sure our Girls on the Run parents had an opportunity to get fit with their daughters.

Steelcase made sure we had enough copies of the Girls on the Run Grown-Up Guide for parents interested in learning more about getting fit through running. Using what they’ve learned, many parents will run along side their daughters at their first 5k on May 18 at the Spring 5k Celebration.

 

Thank you

Thank You Priority Health!

We can’t wait to carry our new backpacks at the Spring 5k Celebration on Saturday, May 18.

Girls on the Run values community partner Gazelle Sports. This amazing hometown business provides shoes and more to several Michigan GOTR councils.

Recently, our friends from Gazelle Sports and Girls on the Run Kalamazoo joined eightWest co-hosts Rachel Ruiz and Terri Deboer to talk about Girls on the Run. As Girls on the Run of Kent County celebrates its 10th anniversary, we want to recognize the heartfelt, substantial role that Gazelle Sports has played in changing the lives of girls in Kent County and several other counties in the region during the past decade.

We look forward to having members of the Gazelle Sports Team join us on Saturday, May 18 at East Kentwood High School for our Spring 5k Celebration.
