Colin Garrett and Sam Hunt Racing’s No. 26 Toyota announced Body Aqua as a partner for the June 13–14 Xfinity Series races at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Body Aqua, a veteran-owned health water brand, was created by CPT Sherman Williams after experiencing severe dehydration in Iraq. Its drinks provide high levels of vitamins and minerals, are diabetic-friendly, and contain no caffeine or artificial additives.
Garrett’s crowdfunded team focuses on veteran suicide prevention and supporting military families. He said the partnership strengthens their mission, especially with Body Aqua now available in Florida Walmart stores.
Williams emphasized the importance of hydration and nutrients like choline for mental health, noting their shared commitment to helping veterans.
Supporters can contribute through donations or sponsorships. The team promotes free services from nonprofits Racing For Heroes and The Rosie Network, using crowdfunding to replace traditional sponsorship funding.
Body Aqua is based in Jacksonville, a major military community, helping expand outreach to veterans and their families.
Body Aqua is proud to announce a new sponsorship partnership with the National Arena League Champion Jacksonville Sharks. Based in Jacksonville, Florida, the Sharks lead the league in home game attendance, drawing an average of 8,500 fans per game.
Through this partnership, Body Aqua will gain strong visibility across multiple platforms, including the team’s website, social media channels, and in-arena advertising. The brand will also host a promotional booth at all home games during the 2021 season, creating opportunities to engage directly with fans and expand its presence within the Jacksonville community.
