GOTR Fall Registration To Open New Curriculum Planned For Third Through Fifth Grades By Ann Mead Ash

During the spring 2018 semester, Girls on the Run (GOTR) Lancaster boasted teams in every school district in the county. Jennifer West, program director for GOTR Lancaster, expects about 850 girls in elementary and middle school to sign up to benefit from the program in the new school year, noting that many of those will be introduced to the new curriculum, available to girls in the third- through fifth-grade program this fall. Girls who take part in the fall session will complete the program by completing a 5K at Millersville University in November. GOTR is a youth development program that works with girls to help

them find their potential and pursue their dreams. The goal of the program is to give girls access to their inner strength by working with trained coaches in small groups. During the program, girls in elementary and middle school are encouraged to develop skills and habits they can rely on throughout life. GOTR uses physical activity coupled with specific lessons to help develop competency in areas related to social, psychological, and physical development. GOTR is not a competitive running program, but the curriculum uses running to teach life skills and promote health. The middle school program goes by the name Heart and Sole. West described the new curriculum as having the same great mission, but utilizing new activities and exercises. “The first four weeks, lessons focus on the girl herself,” explained West, who See GOTR pg 6

Girls on the Run programs aim to help girls to grow individually while also working to develop team-building skills. Girls complete a 5K at the end of the program in celebration of what they have achieved.

Bookworms Invited To Frolic By Ann Mead Ash

By Ann Mead Ash

When an organization collects 40,000 books for a sale and endeavors to sell all those books in four days, drastic sales measures may be employed. The Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society (LMHS) takes on such a challenge with by-the-box discounts beginning on the third day of its annual Bookworm Frolic. On the final day, the box price will be even lower. Although LMHS provides boxes, bookworms may bring their own. “The rule is for it to count, you have to be able to lift (the box of books) yourself,” explained Joel Nofziger, LMHS director of communications, who added jokingly, “Don’t bring a refrigerator box.” See Bookworm Frolic pg 4
