help. Thanks!
Attention Junior and Seniors
Rising high school juniors and seniors and their
families are invited to visit the 25 private institutions during
Virginia Private
College Week July 26 - 31. Students who visit three colleges during the
week will receive special application fee waivers, a nearly $100
savings.
Host Family Needed
I am looking for host families for two
high school boys. Both are exchange students from China. If interested
in learning more, please contact Pat LeDonne at ledonne_p@hcrs-va.org
Middle and High School Students - Community Service
Hours Available!
Girls on the Run needs
volunteers to assist with replenishing Coach's Boxes on Monday, August 9th
from 9:00 a.m. until completion (in the past it's been around 1 or 2).
The work is not difficult but requires focus and attention to detail.
Pizza and beverages will be provided for lunch. Please RSVP to Mary
Hansen at gotrgreaterlynchburg@comcast.net.
Girls on the RunŽ is returning to Holy Cross in the fall of 2010 and Coaches are needed!
How can
you help? Since the focus of our program centers on girls growing to be
strong and confident young women we are looking for women able to serve
as coaches. You can volunteer to coach twice a week for twelve
weeks-even if you're not a runner. You do not need to be a parent to be
involved. If you enjoy working with 3rd, 4th and
5th grade girls, are 21 years or more and female, living an
active and healthy lifestyle and like
to have FUN, you can coach for
Girls on the Run!
Coaches receive five hours of
training (August 21st
at HCRCS, 8:45-2:00) and a comprehensive, well-researched
curriculum and materials that are used in communities across the
country. They also receive discounts on New Balance running apparel.
Each site needs a minimum of two coaches per group of 8-15 girls, so
bring a friend or make a new one. To see Girls on the Run in action,
watch our video on YouTube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4QH5Vk3Meo
It's not a huge time commitment (about 3 hours a
week), but it will mean the world to a small group of girls. Please
contact Mary Hansen (gotrgreaterlynchburg@comcast.net)
or Kandy
Elmore (Elmore_k@hcrs-va.org)
for more information.
