Girls On The Run Bayou Region Council recently partnered with local shoe story Felger’s Footwear to give a team of GOTR girls at Dularge Elementary a new pair of running shoes!

This tradition has been long-running, with Girls On The Run Bayou Region Council partnering with Felger’s Footwear over 10 years ago to help local girls receive new running shoes.


“We are so thankful to Felger’s for providing shoes for our GOTR girls,” said Program Director Andrea Naquin “Our partnership with Felger’s began in 2012 with Southdown Elementary as the spring season recipient. Since then, we have been able to serve 20 teams with new running shoes!”
