All customers and vendors are invited to join Branch Manager John Spellman and his staff to enjoy festivities from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Activities will include facility tours and a skid steer and backhoe rodeo competition. Product consultants from John Deere will be on site to provide demonstrations and share information about the new K Series loaders and G Series motorgraders.
