DENVER, CO – Pester Marketing Company (Alta Convenience and Alta Fuels), has donated 31,686 bottles of Nestle Water to the 1,200 firefighters battling the West Fork Complex fires in Del Norte, Colorado.

“First and foremost, I would like to thank our vendor partners at Nestle Waters for their quick response at a very busy time of the year,” said Rich Spresser, president and CEO of Pester. “Their ability to provide the water and the truck for delivery was great.” 

The West Fork Complex fire includes a trio of wildfires — Papoose Fire, West Fork Fire and Windy Pass Fire — that as of July 5 had burned more than 110,000 acres.

“The fires in this part of the state have affected so many, we have been very fortunate that all our employees have been safe and we have not experienced any loss of property,” Spresser said. “Given the tragic deaths of the Arizona firefighting crew last Sunday, we recognize what a dangerous job these men and women have; providing water seems like the least we can do.”a
