HOPE – For two weeks Super 1 Foods in Hope collected bottles of Gatorade as part of a plan to help give back to the military and/or first responders.

C.J. Johnson, store director, said the local store decided to give the Gatorade, all 115 bottles, to the Hope Fire Department, though they could have been donated to the Hope Police Department, or reserves. This was a company-wide promotion. All of the bottles collected were 32 oz.

Steve Tarpley, with the HFD, said the department was grateful for the donations as the drinks will come in handy. Members of the HFD on hand for the donations were: Tarpley, Tim Gregory and T.J. Landes. Super 1 employees involved were: Johnson, Andrew Clemons and Sonya Hill.
