2006 Summer Meeting

For our 2006 Summer Meeting, Milburn and Lisa Davis graciously served as our hosts at their Davis Custom Dozing shop in Cole Camp, Missouri. In addition to them hosting a wonderful BBQ meal, they “donated” one of their fields to a game of bulldozer baseball! We also held a small equipment rodeo and wrapped up that July afternoon with a short business meeting in the shade.
