The 2nd Annual Heavy Equipment Day was a resounding success. We owe thanks to the many volunteers and businesses who gave time and displayed equipment so kids of all ages could experience a wide range of machinery that makes building a community possible. It was great fun to see the smiles of our youngsters excited to ‘operate’ real equipment and learn from experienced operators. We are thankful for the overwhelming community support for this event.
