Girls on the move
CONTRIBUTED STORY
E Q R l U I PO R T L A ND O B S ER V ER
Girls on the move is a 10-week biking expedition that
begins in Portland, Ore. and finishes in New York City. The
kick-off will begin in Portland from September 7-10. Girls
on the Move includes:
•
A 3,865 mile cross-country bicycling expedition, from
Portland to New York City.
•
Powerful community education and outreach across
the country addressing issues o f self-esteem, body image,
and self-reliance.
•
Exciting Girls Festivals in Portland, Denver, Chicago,
Philadelphia and New York City with entertainment,
educational activities, interactive physical exhibits and
special celebrity appearances.
There are 18 million girls aged9-18 in America. Soon they
will be w om en.. .and leaders, teachers,
scientists, athletes, mentors and mothers o f the new
millennium. While girls at this age have so much to
celebrate, at the same time they also face many challenging
obstacles, especially depression and self-esteem issues.
This is the message more than 60 incredible women will be
communicating this fall as they bike across the country
with Girls on the Move.
At the heart of Girls on the Move is a cross-country
bicycling expedition from Portland to New York by riders
selected for their personal stories and their ability to be role
models and change lives. They’ll stop in communities
along the way to inspire, celebrate and educate girls,
women and communities. Top academics, distinguished
celebrities, corporate sponsors and non-profit organizations
have helped build and grow this groundbreaking initiative
that will directly impact thousands o f girls across the
country. Girls on the move is a special project o f Outward
Bound, created by a group o f female instructors who saw
remarkable improvements in girls’ self-esteem after
completing an adventure based educational experience.
Our riders include a 72 year-old woman who escaped Nazi
Germany, one o f the w orld's premiere paraplegic athletes,
a breast cancer survivor and dozens o f other incredible
stories. Riders range from 17 years to 72 years old.
