Kimberlee McCardel gets a lesson in operating a mini excavator from Team Elmer's crane operator and rigger Don Wylie during the Traverse City Chamber of Commerce Business After Hours monthly event. Attendees were able to test their skills on one of Team Elmer's mini excavators, which is celebrating its 60th anniversary. Participants were challenged to use the equipment to pick up three different-sized balls and deposit them in a garbage can.
