Looking for PoleVaulting classes this Winter

Unread postby KristenKrussow » Sat Oct 29, 2011 2:07 pm

Hi there. Signed up for this forum because my daughter (15) decided to try Pole Vault at the end of her Freshman track season last spring and ended up qualifying for Districts at her first meet attempt. She would love to take some Pole Vaulting lessons before track season starts this year, or a class. We live in Bellingham, WA. And I remember seeing Dick Henry teaching at the Bellingham Sportsplex during the winter (might have been college kids however)? I can't find any information online when I've searched however for classes to sign up for.

Does anyone know where I could find information regarding this, or if there even are classes for High schoolers? Thanks in advance!

Kristen

It looks like they are offering the program this fall :)

Go to https://www.cob.org/econnect/Activities ... Search.asp and click on Track and Fitness programs. If you call the Parks Department you should eventually be able to reach Dick Henrie or someone else that can give you more details.
