Teens help at burned out store

Teens from Pass-It-Along help Alish Hambel, stock shelves at the Sunshine Beauty Supply store, which will serve as her paint store’s temporary location. The paint store’s original location was destroyed in a recent fire. Hambel plans to return to her original place of business when repairs are complete. The boys pictured are John Hambel, Casey Hambel, Michael Kane, Justin Fay, Bennett Meir and Derik Johnson. The fire was so hot it melted a computer and exploded paint cans. Hambel, a former mayor of Sparta and former chair of the Miss Sparta pageant, pledged to reopen her store, a Benjamin Moore franchise, as soon as possible.
