Staff with the Blaine Public Works Department are gearing up for the second annual “Roadeo” and they’re promising big equipment demonstrations and activities for all ages. The event takes place from 1 to 3 p.m. on Friday, August 25 behind the Blaine Public Library, at 610 3rd street.
“Much of what we do is behind the scenes,” said Blaine public works director Ravyn Whitewolf. “This event will provide the public of all ages an opportunity to interact with those doing the work to improve the quality of life for our citizens.”
The Blaine public works department operates and maintains all city utilities, including water, wastewater, stormwater, electrical services and the repair and maintenance of streets and public facilities. Through interactive displays and live demonstrations, guests will have the chance to learn about the individuals who operate big equipment in Blaine each day.
“This event will be more interactive and serve to demonstrate the capabilities of what the different types of equipment can do,” read a statement from the Blaine Public Works Department. “It will be interesting and appropriate for all ages.”
