| New Holland sponsors PLANET’s 2011 Student Career Days and Loader Backhoe Competition
RACINE, Wis. (March 16, 2011) – New Holland Construction today announced it is a major sponsor of the Professional Landcare Network’s (PLANET’s) 35th Annual Student Career Days. The annual conference and career fair draws more than 1,000 students enrolled in horticulture, landscape and lawn care programs at colleges and universities across the country. Students compete in events that are directly related to the skills necessary for a career in the green industry. This year’s event takes place March 17 - 20, 2011, at Joliet Community College in Joliet, III.
“We are proud to be part of an event that draws the best and brightest landscape and horticulture students in the country,” said Dave December, marketing manager at New Holland Construction. “The students participating in this event are truly the future leaders in the landscape industry.”
Tractor loader backhoe competitive event
New Holland is also the sponsor of the tractor loader backhoe competition held during the three-day event. Students participating in the competition, held on Saturday, March 19, will demonstrate proficiency at operating a tractor loader backhoe provided by New Holland Construction.
Competitors will be required to perform a pre-operation inspection and operate the backhoe loader to complete three timed tasks simulating the speed, safety, touch and feel needed on a job site. In addition, competitors will take a written exam covering safety, loader backhoe characteristics, operation and maintenance.
