Be My GALENTINE! Celebrating National Girls & Women in Sports Day with SGU

STRONG BODIES. KIND HEARTS. UNSTOPPABLE MINDS.

That's our motto! The local nonprofit SG United Foundation ("Strong Girls United") is running a Be My Galentine event at Spark Fitness and Tennis Club in celebration of National Girls and Women in Sport day, in celebration of Valentine's Day to exercise our mind, body, and hearts, and as a FUNdraiser for the organization.

The event will include fun fitness games, team building activities, and mental health/mental skills stations with a group of high school and college female athlete leaders serving as the volunteer coaches for the day! We plan to get shirts for all participants and have other swag to go home with. The event is open to K-8th graders!

Interested in sponsoring this event to help provide t-shirts for all? Please reach out to Lani Silversides lani@sgunitedfoundation.org
