Girls in Action Program through the GoGirlGo! Grant

Salisbury Parks and Recreation applied for the GoGirlGo! grant sponsored by the Women’s Sports Foundation in early May 2008. In mid September, the department was notified that they have been awarded a grant worth $2,750 to facilitate a program called Girls in Action
during summer 2009.

The Girls in Action program, geared toward young girls ages 8-13, will take place at the Salisbury Civic Center, twice a week for eight weeks beginning in early June 2009 and concluding in mid-August 2009. The program offered at no cost, will meet from 9:00 a.m. –   1:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays and will follow the GoGirlGo! curriculum, while also participating in sport activities, learning about teamwork and developing their own individuality. There will also be guest speakers and field trips pertaining to the curriculum. The program will be coordinated by 6-10 coaches and administrators and community volunteers. Sport activities to be included in the program are tennis, racquetball, weight training, swimming, dance and yoga, basketball, martial arts and softball!

More information pertaining to program specifics will be posted spring 2009!
