Did you know that Roosevelt has a girls running club for girls in grades 3-5? Roosevelt has teamed up with the organization Girls on the Run to offer a running club that is training the girls to run in 5k events. The program also teaches the girls about the importance of exercise, good nutrition, how to have healthy friendships, etc.

The first event that the girls participated was the RCEF’s Oktoberun 5k in downtown Redwood City. The girls ran on the city streets downtown starting and ending at the historical Courthouse Square.

Congratulations to the girls that participated!
