Approximately 200 industry professionals from Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky were in attendance to catch up with Leslie Equipment Company personnel and speak with manufacturer representatives while reviewing the dealership's lineup of equipment. DaVincis provided dinner during the set up and The Corral served breakfast and lunch during the event.

Attendees were encouraged to test their operator skills on a John Deere 17G compact excavator to win prizes. Headquartered in Cowen, W.
