Minneapolis, MN (8/6/2007) - Polaris
Industries today announced the company is working with
Minnesota Dealer, Digger's Polaris & Marine, to provide
Sportsman ATVs and RANGER side by side vehicles to help
with the recovery efforts of the Interstate 35W bridge
disaster.
"As a Minnesota company, we share in the sorrow
this tragedy has left on our state," said Polaris
President and Chief Operating Officer Bennett Morgan.
"It's our hope that the units provided make this
very difficult effort a bit easier for all involved."
Prior Lake's Digger's Polaris will provide six Sportsman
500 ATVs and six Polaris RANGER 4x4s to the Minneapolis
Police Department and OSHA immediately to aid in the
effort. Polaris vehicles also were used in the recovery
and clean up efforts of Hurricane Katrina, at Ground
Zero and during various Minnesota flood relief efforts.
"When our dealership was contacted to provide
ATVs and Side by Side vehicles for the recovery effort,
there was no doubt in my mind we would make it happen,"
said Doug Nagle, owner of Digger's Polaris & Marine.
"This tragedy has hit very close to home and providing
these units is our way to help with the effort."
