Chattanooga Coca-Cola and our commitment to our communities:  In the “Readers Write” section of the Chattanooga Times Free Press, local resident Ken Still writes…

“I read with interest recently about Coca-Cola’s desire to remain in Chattanooga and its loyalty to this area.  It brought to mind the events of several years ago when a tornado struck East Brainerd on Friday night before Easter.

We got our chain saw, gathered our grown children and went to work helping friends who suffered damage.  By mid-morning, we were sweaty and dirty.  Debris was piled in the street like an obstacle course.  I saw a red semi-truck making its way through the mess and wondered why in the world it would try to come in.

As it got closer, I realized it was a Coke truck.  It stopped at each house to hand out 12-Packs of water – at no cost.  What a wonderful corporate citizen on a miserable day.  How could I ever drink any other soda?  Belated thanks to Coke!”
