SuperTrapp, local performance exhaust manufacturer and Quaker Steak & Lube joined forces this summer to host Bike Nite Food Drives at three of Quaker Steak & Lube’s Ohio locations.
The message to motorcyclists and enthusiasts, as well as SuperTrapp, DCM, Maradyne and Quaker Steak & Lube employees was, "Fuel Your Passion While You Feed The Hungry."
Bike Nite attendees were encouraged to make a food donation and / or a minimum of a $5 monetary donation. Those who did, received a free, commemorative "Fuel Your Passion While You Feed The Hungry" SuperTrapp and Quaker Steak & Lube Bike Nite t-shirt.
Gina Pastuszynski (SuperTrapp’s Marketing Manager) says: "We encouraged everyone to fill up their saddle bags, purses, pockets, jackets and back packs with food and head out to Bike Nite Food Drives. The response was overwhelming! We greatly appreciate all of the riders and enthusiasts within our local communities that came together to make the SuperTrapp Bike Nite Food Drives a huge success."
"Bike Nites are infamous for a good time, great food, live music and loud pipe contests, but to couple all of that with supporting a great cause and helping to feed those without enough food right in our own back yards speaks volumes for the communities as a whole. We’re proud to have been affiliated with Quaker Steak & Lube and all of the generous individuals who fueled their passion while they fed the hungry."
