With the help of his son-in-law, Mike Woolf, Dave uses the 300 Utility that he has modified for a specific purpose. The platform on the tractor is just the right height for putting the more than 200 flags on the utility poles throughout Wakeman for patriotic holidays such as Memorial Day and July 4th. Dave is Assistant Chief of the Wakeman Fire Department which sponsors the flag display. This photograph was taken by a local journalist and was featured on the back cover of Red Power magazine in July-August, 2001.
