From the Organizer
Welcome to the 13th Annual Harvest Hustle 5K! We are looking forward to another wonderful race. Last year was our highest turnout ever! Thank you to our sponsors, runners and donors. We appreciate you all for coming out and supporting the race. Over the years together, we have raised over $35,000.00 and have collected thousands of pounds of food to help the families of our community. We are very proud that the proceeds will benefit the Niles Family Services Food Pantry in supporting families in need, by raising money through the fee to participate and donations. Any runners who sign up for the race will receive a race package the day of the race. Please consider supporting us by running, sponsoring and/or donating today.
