Forklift Rodeo
On October 7, Rivers East Workforce Development Board, Hyster-Yale Group, Pitt County Economic Development, and Gregory Poole Lift Systems hosted a Forklift Rodeo.
The rodeo took place from 8:30am-12:30pm at Uptown Greenville's Five Points Plaza parking lot. Teams composed of forklift operators from local manufacturing companies competed against one another in courses such as safety, basketball, bowling, and thread the needle. This event tested competitors' forklift skills while emphasizing safety as they maneuvered the courses.
Spectators were invited to attend. Two food trucks were on-site serving lunch, Tiebreakers and Oh My Gyro.
The winning team was Cummins.
