APWA Equipment ROADeo
The APWA Operations and Maintenance Committee invite and encourage you to participate, and to allow participation by your maintenance workers, in the Annual Equipment ROADeo at the APWA WA Fall 2025 Conference on October 16, 2025. The ROADeo is a chance for participants across the state to test their skills by maneuvering machinery through specific obstacle courses. Participants will demonstrate the skills it takes to perform the daily internal operations of the Public Works Departments throughout the state, and to have the opportunity to network with other public agencies on techniques and how to better serve the City, County, or State Agency they represent. Winners of the event then go to compete on a national level.
