In 2012, the race field of 147 included teams from four schools; Andover and Dirigo Elementary, Holy Savior School and Mountain Valley Middle School. The 2013 race has added Rumford Elementary to the lineup. Thank you to all teachers and volunteers involved in bringing these teams together.

Also new this year is a very long list of sponsors, many of them being new to the event. Bangor Savings Bank locations in both Rumford and Dixfield are huge supporters of the Maine Harvest for Hunger program and have signed on as the top sponsor. The Maine Press, The Fitch Company, Franklin Savings Bank and the Little Red Hen are also new to the event. The list of returning sponsors that have been with the HH5K since its inaugural year includes Irving Forest Products, Chisholm Ski Club, Pizza Hut, BC Consultants, Dignity Memorial, Med-Care, Davis Florist and Road ID. Thank you to all of these businesses. Your support is graciously appreciated.
