PARENT SUPPORT & VOLUNTEERING
MODELING is one of the best ways to teach your kids. We would like to encourage all parents to set the example for their kids by exercising daily, and making healthy nutrition decisions. Parents are welcome to participate with their kids in the weekly practices. Remember, 6 year old and younger participants are REQUIRED to have a parent attend each session (so why NOT do it instead of sitting on a bench while your kids get are getting fit). Your kids will work harder if they are competing against adults! Also, we encourage the adults to enter the monthly races (usually 5k, 10k, or ½ Marathon distances for adults)
VOLUNTEERING & PARTICIPATION
The coaches will need additional help at practices and at races to help with running the exercises and games, recording times, video taping, and being supportive out on the course. Checking athletes in and out at each practice and races as well as snacks and rewards distribution are critical areas that we need support. If the coaches need to do this then it will take away from practice time and instruction.
We are asking the parents of each participant to volunteer at 2 or more practices or races over the course of the program. Sign-up sheets will be available at the Program Information Meetings as well as at the First Day of practice on Thursday Jan. 17, 2012.
Below are some details on the Volunteer Tasks needed and this area will be updated regularly with additional details and assignments available.
