GILBERT, AZ — Amanda Ferguson and her family spent the 4th of July determined to save lives, carrying a cooler around the Riparian Preserve in Gilbert in an effort to honor the memory of her late brother Bill.

In August of 2013, Bill, an Army veteran, father and husband went for a bike ride with friends off the Beeline Highway. “I was at work and there was a sticky note that said call Kyle, your brother is lost,” said Ferguson.“It shows that you can make good decisions, you can be prepared but it only takes one small change in plans to make a perfect normal situation very dangerous and even deadly,” said Ferguson.

Hodges says the Hydration Drive is in its 17th year. This year they have a goal to collect more than 750,000 bottles. Once collected, they are then passed along to partners to give out across the state.
