2025 Road-eo winners!

Posted On: October 23, 2025

Free mulch available at Chelan Transfer Station

Every fall, the five road crews come together for the Equipment Road-eo, a friendly competition that tests their skills. The crews gather at our Wenatchee shop and compete in three categories: backhoe, loader and truck.

The winners this year are, from left to right, Todd Sweeney, assistant foreman of the Entiat District; Logan Fifer of the Chelan District; Garret Kamphaus of the Entiat District; Justin Torres of the Wenatchee District; and Mark Cunning, assistant foreman of the Wenatchee District.

And the results:

  • Backhoe: First place, Torres; second place, Cunning; and third place, Fifer.
  • Loader: First place, Fifer; second place, Sweeney; and third place, Torres.
  • Truck: First place, Kamphaus; second place, Cunning; and third place, Sweeney.

Congrats to all the crews! We really do have the best road crews in our area!
