A John Deere Gator-brand TS model.
LOWER POTTSGROVE PA – When members of the Pottsgrove School District athletic department take to the fields this year, they may do so in a new set of wheels.
The district Board of School directors authorized the department’s purchase of a John Deere Gator-brand four-wheel utility vehicle from Deer Country Farm and Lawn Inc. of Allentown PA. It was the district’s selected bidder of two that submitted quotes. The cost: $6,642.
Board approval came during its meeting last week (Aug. 11, 2009) in the district administrative offices on Kauffman Road. For sports, such vehicles are commonly used to haul equipment and supplies, and occasionally as medical conveyance.
