Successful Girls on the Run Winter 5K
The Girls on the Run Winter 5k was a BIG success! Over 200 community members came out on Saturday, December 5, 2009 to join our Girls on the Run and Girls on Track participants in this event. The 5k participants met at Depot Market Square in downtown Bellingham on the beautiful December morning. While waiting for the event to start, many of the girls (and even some boys) visited the Goody Hair Station where they had their locks colored with shades of pinks and reds!
