Community Involvement  Eighty Harwood Union High School students work our six water stops on the course. The water stop at the top of Perry Hill Road is staffed by young students from Waterbury’s Thatcher Brook Elementary School. Thirty-five Waterbury firefighters are stationed along the course to calm traffic and guide runners. Waterbury Emergency Services has an ambulance and EMT’s on-site at Pilgrim 5. Many other community volunteers help with parking, t-shirt distribution, and course monitoring.

Leaf Peepers is organized and presented by Central Vermont Runners. The race committee is made up of representatives of CVR and Harwood Boosters.
