"The local community at Wauka Mountain has been so supportive of our BP store and Subway restaurant at Quillian's Corner for so many years," said Clipper Petroleum's Tom Bower. "We are happy we can give back to Wauka Mountain. They are doing great things to enhance the learning experience of every student. We hope that this money is able to touch every student in some way." <br />
