Fort Collins Customer BBQ
Community in Focus: Fort Collins Customer BBQ Draws Record Crowds
The spirit of "Working Partners" was on full display last week as 4Rivers Equipment in Fort Collins hosted its annual Customer BBQ. The event was a massive success, bringing together an estimated 300–350 attendees for an afternoon of appreciation, connection, and a little friendly competition.
Celebrating Partnerships and Local Success
The Fort Collins BBQ has become more than just a meal; it is a vital touchpoint for the Northern Colorado construction and agricultural community. This year’s turnout highlights the deep-rooted relationships 4Rivers has cultivated since its founding in 1926.
Event Highlights:
- Culinary Excellence: Guests enjoyed fresh food straight from the grill, providing a relaxed environment for contractors, fleet owners, and local families to network.
- The "Excavator Putter" Game: Once again, the precision of John Deere hydraulics was put to the test. This fan-favorite challenge allowed guests to use an excavator to sink putts, demonstrating the fine-tuned responsiveness of modern machinery in a fun, high-stakes way.
- Genuine Connections: Beyond the iron, the event focused on the people. 4Rivers employees from every department—sales, parts, and service—were on hand to share stories and strengthen the bonds that keep local infrastructure moving.
