Toolcat 5600 Contest Winners

Melissa Brangan, Pineville, Pa. is the grand prize winner of the “If I Had a Toolcat…” contest. The entry was chosen because of her compelling story about converting her farm, with the help of a Toolcat™ 5600, to a state-of-the-art equine facility designed for hippotherapy. She will have a year ’s use of a machine with three attachments of her choice.

Thousands of contest entrants detailed how they would use a Toolcat 5600 to solve problems, ranging from conventional applications such as volunteer cleanup work and grounds maintenance to the unusual. It was obvious from the entries that there is nothing like the Toolcat utility work machine.
