Factory representatives were on hand from industry leading manufacturers that included Kawasaki-KCM, Kobelco, Terex, Sakai, Liebherr, Bell, New Holland, Western Star, Freightliner and many more.

Tracey Road Equipment has been a proud supporter of the Anthony S. Santaro AGC Scholarship Fund and its annual Golf Classic. Each year at the event's banquet bidders compete to have the right to determine where a beautiful velvet painting will hang for the next year. This has been a fundraising tradition for more than 25 years. This year Jerry Tracey's friends, customers and competitors formed a group and spent $14,000 to see to it that the painting found a home in Jerry's office.
