Case Crowns Triple Threat Rodeo Champion, Raises Money for Habitat for Humanity Affiliates
January 25, 2012
Octavio Miranda, of Ontario, was named the Case Triple Threat Rodeo North American Champion.
Octavio Miranda, of Ancaster, Ontario, was named the Case Triple Threat Rodeo North American Champion and won a 2012 Ram 2500 truck for himself, and a new Case TR270 compact track loader and a Towmaster trailer for his sponsoring company, L.M. Enterprises.
Owner/operator Allan Long, of Summerhill, Pa., finished second to win a $5,000 CNH Capital rewards card.
Also benefitting from the Triple Threat Rodeo program were Habitat for Humanity affiliates across North America. Case presented a corporate contribution of $5,000 to Habitat for Humanity Las Vegas at the championship event, one year after kicking off the Triple Threat Rodeo program with an identical $5,000 donation. In addition, each participating Case dealership made a donation to its local Habitat affiliate, bringing the total raised during the program for Habitat affiliates to $51,726.
Miranda, Long and Lesher proved their skills during the Triple Threat Rodeo Championship operating a Case F Series wheel loader, N Series loader/backhoe and Alpha Series skid steer through a demanding course of challenges that simulated some of the most difficult applications facing equipment operators in their day-to-day jobs. They earned their place among the five finalists who competed in an extreme test of skills to win their ranks as champion, second- and third-place finishers.
