Santa’s Ride

Left to right: Christa Francoeur-Brager, Steve Colbourne and Beverley Cameron

Look closely in daylight hours at who is comfortably sitting in the seat of this piece of high-tech ag equipment. The image gives a whole new meaning to Santa making his rounds.

A Case IH Patriot Series high-clearance sprayer wouldn’t be considered Santa’s typical ride, but in a strong rural-based farming community, the likes of Camrose, it’s a perfect way for the jolly, beloved gent to make his presence felt and bring smiles and joy to many. Rocky Mountain Equipment staff member Beverley Cameron, branch administrator, initiated the idea of decorating either a combine or sprayer for the Christmas season. In late November, Christa Francoeur-Brager, a parts specialist, and Steve Colbourne, ag optimization, pitched in to make a masterful display. They utilized thirty-two strings of lights, a dusk-to-dawn timer and other festive-season props in their project.
