Camp GOTR by Girls on the Run provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for girls to develop self-confidence and learn skills they can use now and as they grow. The week-long program combines the best of our 10-week programs with all the fun of camp. Girls enjoy being physically active, expressing creativity through arts and crafts and storytelling, and engaging in interactive lessons all while building friendships in a fun, inclusive setting with trained coaches. Camp GOTR is for rising 3rd-5th graders. 

Each week of Camp GOTR consists of 5 half-days (4-hour blocks) of curriculum. Girls will spend time as a group (consisting of no more than 20 girls) and in small teams (consisting of 5-7 girls). Throughout the week, girls will have fun exploring friendships with activities designed to discover what makes a good friend and how to be a good friend to others. Girls will build, create, write, discuss, connect, and laugh all while participating in games and activities that will leave them feeling confident and appreciated by their teammates.
