Rallying for a Cause

When there’s a need, Watco team members are best known for pitching in to help. That’s true for Safety Manager Tim Sharitt and members of Watco’s Port of Birmingham team.

Together, they recently helped contribute to a lunch following a motorcycle ride in honor of a 2-year-old boy with terminal cancer. Sharitt owns a food truck, which he used to prepare eight rib slabs, 50 pounds of french fries, and 40 pounds of pulled pork for this event.

While Sharitt prepared and served meals, the Port of Birmingham covered the food costs. Sharitt said: “We’re very blessed to give what we could for this family. Our team members and many others showed up for them. It was an extraordinary day.”

For this special event, Safety Manager Tim Sharitt cooked and served lunch out of his Big Mit’s food truck.
