In the most recent Northeast Edition, we announced that CEG Productions will be giving away a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck at the 8th Annual Philadelphia Construction Expo in Reading, Pa., to one lucky attendee.

Well, we didn’t want attendees of the upcoming Pittsburgh Construction Expo to feel left out so we decided to give away another Ram 1500 during the show on Feb. 6 and 7.

That’s right … giving them away. The only thing attendees of either expo must do is register for the show at the door.

Also at both shows, one lucky winner each will have the chance to choose between two skid steer attachments — a root grapple or a 4-in-1 bucket, both donated by Construction Implements Depot (CID) LLC.

The 8th Annual Philadelphia Construction Expo will be held inside the Greater Reading Expo Center Wednesday and Thursday, Feb. 28 and March 1, 2007. Show hours will be 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday.

Located at 2525 North 12th St. in Reading, the Greater Reading Expo Center will house approximately 85,000 sq. ft. of exhibit space for the Philadelphia Construction Expo. The center also has more than 4,000 on-site parking spaces conveniently located near the main entrance.

The expo will feature all the latest and greatest in new iron and industry services, and guests can once again show off their backhoe operating excellence in a backhoe rodeo. A total of $5,000 in cash will be up for grabs.

The 3rd Annual Pittsburgh Construction Expo will again be held at the Pittsburgh ExpoMart, in Monroeville, Pa., just five minutes from the Pennsylvania Turnpike, and just 15 minutes from the heart of downtown Pittsburgh.

Next year’s show will feature 15 percent more exhibit space, totaling 85,000 sq. ft.

The Philadelphia and Pittsburgh Construction Expos are sponsored by CEG Productions, the trade show division of Construction Equipment Guide.
