BAY BITS KIDS RUN CLUB
BayBits is an enrichment & empowerment program designed to motivate and inspire children ages 2-9. We transform traditional running relays, games, and drills into bite-sized life lessons that teach kids confidence, integrity and teamwork.
They're offering the opportunity for students from Clearwater Central Catholic to be coaches/mentors for the students in our program. Currently,they are partnering with Espiritu Santo with events held at Phillippe Park in Safety Harbor.
This would be a great opportunity for any students interested in teaching, love sports/athletics or just like being outside! BayBits loves giving back to the community and wants to help students achieve their volunteer hours.
If interested, please contact Dana Harris, BayBits Owner and Head Coach:
