GETTING THE MOST OUT OF ITS MACHINERY, AND DOING IT


“The Toolcat machine is especially helpful for maintaining our trails, including mowing, and because of the spacious cargo box to store tools and supplies.” — Keith Peters


Pennsylvania park Toolcat 5600, T320


For outdoor enthusiasts, there’s nothing better than spending a weekend on the lake, going for a hike surrounded by forests, wetlands and trails, or spending a day at the beach with family and friends. At Bald Eagle State Park in north central Pennsylvania, visitors can do all of these activities, thanks in part to a dedicated group of grounds maintenance employees and their versatile Bobcat®


equipment.


The Bobcat machinery includes a Toolcat™ 5600 utility work machine, a T320 compact track loader and 12 front- mounted attachments to maximize the staff’s capabilities. All of the equipment was purchased from the local Bobcat dealership — Best Line Equipment.


Assistant Park Manager Tim Yeager helps oversee the more than 5,900 acres at the state park. It includes a 1,730-acre lake — named after Foster Joseph Sayers, a World War II soldier from Centre County — two campgrounds and a 16-room Nature Inn for year-round stays. The Foster Joseph Sayers Reservoir features a 369-slip marina and is open from mid-May through October. According to Yeager, it is one of the top tournament lakes in the area, with many warm water fi sh species, including largemouth bass.
