Saskatoon Contractor Wins New Holland
New Holland Construction announced that Trevor Wehage, from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, earned the title of North American Skid Steer Champion. Mr. Wehage, who works for Don Wehage & Sons Trucking & Excavating Ltd. defeated more than 30 of the most talented compact equipment operators in the United States and Canada in a series of skill-testing challenges using a New Holland 200 Series skid steer loader. The championship event took place during the 2011 GIE+EXPO show last October in Louisville, Kentucky. The field consisted of more than 2,000 participants who competed in New Holland Construction Super Boom Road Show events across the United States and Canada this year. Mr. Wehage, who has operated equipment similar to skid steer loaders for 14 years, came in first place with a winning time of 00:21.10. Along with the crown, he earned the grand prize of a New Holland Construction 200 Series skid steer loader – valued at $35,000 – plus a leather jacket and a commemorative scale model of a New Holland 200 Series skid steer loader. New Holland Construction’s leadership in the skid steer loader category began in 1972 with the introduction of the L35 – the industry’s first skid steer loader with roll-over protective structures (ROPS) and a vertical lift boom system. Since then, New Holland Construction has produced more than 200,000 skid steer loaders for customers in the landscaping, agricultural and construction markets. The New Holland Construction Super Boom Road Show events also provided fundraising and volunteer opportunities with local chapters of the American Red Cross and the Canadian Red Cross. At each event, local Red Cross chapter representatives were on site to generate awareness of local activities and recruit volunteers.
