Rogers Group had a large presence at the 25th Annual Octoberfest, held at the St. Florian Park and Walking Trail in Florence, Alabama. This marked the 7th year RGI has set up an interactive booth and served as an event t-shirt sponsor.
Throughout the festival, we hosted a community tent where attendees could stop by for giveaways, learn more about our company, and explore several pieces of equipment on display. Thanks to equipment provided by TEC and Cat, both kids and adults had the opportunity to get an up-close look at new machinery and take photos. Our team also handed out hard hats and candy to children, while adults received some RGI swag.
We enjoyed spending the weekend with community members and answering questions. Many of the spectators and participants travel the roads that we build and pave in North AL and Southern TN, and we received a lot of great comments on the work RGI is doing throughout the area.
Thank you to the Town of St. Florian, event organizers, volunteers, and everyone who stopped by our tent. Events like Oktoberfest provide a great opportunity to strengthen community connections and celebrate the people and traditions that make the Shoals area special.
Special thanks to Vinnie and Brandon for organizing the setup this year, and to those who worked at the booth on Saturday: Tara Adkison (Tuscumbia CSR), Lacey Wilson (Tuscumbia Admin), Brandon White (Traffic Control Specialist), Michael Wilkes (Ala SMA QC Manager), Vinnie Wilson (Ala Mechanic), & his wife Misty.
