Spaulding Academy & Family Services
The Spaulding Woods 50K takes place on the grounds of Spaulding Academy & Family Services, a nonprofit organization that provides educational, residential, therapeutic, and community-based services for children and youth with neurological, emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges.
Located on more than 500 acres in Northfield, New Hampshire, the campus offers a safe and supportive environment where students are given opportunities to learn, grow, and build skills for lifelong success.
Hosting the race here is a privilege, and something we’re proud to be part of. A portion of each entry supports Spaulding Academy & Family Services.
Drawn by the Kids
Each runner’s bib features original artwork created by students at Spaulding Academy & Family Services. The designs are drawn by hand and change each year, making every bib unique.
It’s a small detail that has become one of the most meaningful parts of the race—for runners, for volunteers, and for the students who create them.
On Course Support
Aid stations and volunteers are a steady presence throughout the day, offering support, encouragement, and familiarity as runners move through each loop.
Aid station operations are supported by Normandin, Cheney & O'Neil, PLLC, whose contribution helps make race-day support possible throughout the course.
Endurance fuel drink mix is provided by Formula369 and included at aid stations and in runner swag bags.
Volunteers are a big part of what makes the day work. If you’re interested in being part of it, reach out at aaron@raceawayevents.com
