[quote=Anonymous]I don't think Kids on the Run is part of the program. Girls on the Run operates under that name and as Girls on Track (the middle school version). OP, I felt like it was a lot of money the first season we did it and then I started coaching this year and it opened my eyes to where the money goes. They have to develop the curriculum, keep an office open and staffed and put on a race. Montgomery County has never turned away a participant because they couldn't pay so your fee is subsidizing that. They provide you with a t-shirt, water bottle, medals, and snacks for your child at every meeting. As a coach, I am reimbursed for the snacks I purchase. When you start figuring it all up, the $160 fee doesn't seem that unreasonable to me. [/quote]
