LUMBER JACK SHOW

 
The Lumber Jack Show is a part of the local Rochester Fest each year. For the last couple of years 2006-2008 we were asked by Wright's Small Engine to help prepare for the show. They needed help moving pine logs from the parking area to the pond at Foster Arens park. Our MultiTrac was ideal for this as it would not damage the grassy areas of the park that needed to be crossed. In return we were offered space in the show to display the MultiTrac and handout our business cards. We did this the first year but the following years our equipment showed too much wear to be put on display. Besides, it was more fun to be at the events.

This was one of the most popular and best attended event of the festivals, but unfortunately it was also one of the most expensive. In 2009 with the economy in such a downswing STIL (sponsor of major chainsaw championship events) scheduled a conflicting championship event on the same weekend down South, diverting most of the top competitors away from the Rochester feast. As a result, this event was terminated L.

 

DISPLAY

Our display consisted of the MultiTrac, our attachments, our large trailer with logo and a table with pictures and information.
