We are thrilled to announce that Rachel Desautels has joined 

Girls on the Run as our new Northern Vermont Program Coordinator!

Rachel is not only a longtime Girls on the Run Vermont coach and supporter, whom many of you already know, she also brings to her new post over 15 years of experience in building strong professional relationships and team-oriented business procedures as a national television and radio media buyer. She'll be coordinating existing GOTRVT programs and coaches that attend the Northern 5k in Essex Junction as well as recruiting new sites across the northern region of the state-serving Addison, Caledonia, Chittenden, Franklin, Grand Isle, Lamoille, Orange, Orleans and Washington counties-and will be working from her office in Williston.

As an avid runner and mother to a third grader eager to participate in GOTR this year, Rachel is an empathetic supporter of our program and is passionate about sharing our message with as many young girls as possible.  We are confident that you will feel well supported and taken care of in your role as a coach and team volunteer.  We are delighted to be taking this step towards improved customer service to each of you, as well as to our girls and their families.

Rachel will help us to increase our reach to girls throughout northern Vermont as we prepare for the spring 2015 program! I Additionally, she will be helping us bring new northern Vermont sponsors on board and giving GOTRVT more visibility at events in your areas.

In this, our 15th Anniversary at Girls on the Run Vermont, it is wonderful to have had our staff grow so much in the last year. Having Rachel join us makes the GOTRVT administrative team complete (six of us now, wow)!
