Being a part of such a collaborative industry, The Kona Coffee and Tea Company has expanded their creative outlets by sponsoring the family's very own racing team. Bolton Racing has been running under co-drivers and cousins, Danny and Brad Bolton, since 2004. Their passion for the sport and love for the racing community has brought both the team and their sponsors much press coverage and excitement throughout the racing season. Danny and Brad own and operate their own Ford Ranger pre-runner that they fabricated themselves from ground up. In 2007, Bolton Racing was crowned First Place in their class of the Best in the Desert Racing Series, trumping professional racers and teams double their age. These Bolton boys know how to take a hobby and sport to the next level and make it into a rewarding career. Over the past two years, Danny and Brad have ran their truck in eight races, completing all of them whether they drive through the finish line in reverse or under a blanket of fine silt. The Kona Coffee and Tea Company is a proud sponsor of Bolton Racing because of their positive attitude and drive (pun intended) that they bring to the off-road community. ~ Kirstina Bolton  Makua Lani Christian School is a part of the Big Island Interscholastic Federation (BIIF). Although the school may be small in size and number, they have proved themselves by rising to the top wit numerous island and state titles. In the past five years, Makua Lani has developed high-performing soccer, cross-country, track and field, tennis, golf, paddling, and baseball teams. The majority have qualified and participated in state championship tournaments. In 2007, the boy's soccer team won the Big Island Soccer Championship. The Kona Coffee and Tea Company has proudly sponsored these teams by providing sports bags, equipment, gifts, water bottles, and fan support. It is the company's desire to give this small school with huge potential the chance to succeed beyond its original means. Makua Lani's sports teams have and continue to show the Islands their outstanding skill. ~ Kirstina Bolton
