The girls with the Wrangell Girls on the Run program on Monday sold off a selection of baked goods outside of the Bobs' IGA deli for this year's fundraiser weekend. They also did so on Saturday afternoon, picking up $790 for the group's activities, which promotes self-confidence and healthy habits for elementary-aged girls. The program makes sure the girls involved have proper footwear, which the funds they raise helps accomplish. "We haven't done any fundraising in awhile," explained coach Becky McIntyre. Their training season started back in February, and her girls will be holding their first 5K run at the end of April. Anyone interested in helping out – either as a run volunteer, cheerleader, or something else – can contact McIntyre at wrangellgirlsontherun@gmail.com.
