Vermeer Texas-Louisiana and sister company Bobcat of Lubbock held their annual tailgate party for customers on October 28 at the companies' Slaton Road facility.

A cold rain did not dampen the enthusiasm for the popular annual event as approximately 300 enjoyed lunch and an opportunity to win tickets to the Texas-Tech vs Baylor game the following day.

"Our customers are at the heart of what we do every day and we enjoy expressing our appreciation," said Branch Manager Troy Rhoades.

The two companies serve the underground utility, general construction, pipeline and landscape industries as well as municipalities in the region. Its equipment ranges from huge Vermeer trenching machines to mini-excavators and lawn equipment from Bobcat.
