Approximately 150 guests attended the event, which started off with a special ribbon cutting ceremony. They were treated to Nortrax Territory Manager, Roy James’ famous southern style hickory smoked beef brisket and pork butts with all the fixings.

Customers could operate construction equipment in a special demonstration area of the facility and select John Deere forestry machines were on display. In addition, attendees could try their skills on the John Deere excavator simulator and had a chance to visit with Deere and other industry representatives. A John Deere smoker was given away as a door prize.
