Editors Notebook September 2026
Craig Mongeau - Profile Editor in Chief - September 2026
The 32nd Annual N.Y.S. Highway & Public Works Expo is shaping up to be one of our biggest shows yet — and that's saying a lot, considering last year's show was a record-breaker.
Exhibit space is now 92 percent sold out, and we have only 11 standard 10 x 10-ft. booths remaining. So, if you are considering exhibiting, now is the time to reserve your space!
We're also excited to introduce several new attractions this year. Lunch will be catered by Chick-fil-A, featuring their famous chicken sandwiches and waffle fries. Free lunch tickets will be available courtesy of our lunch sponsors, so we encourage you to stop by their booths and thank them for their support.
Here are the 2026 lunch sponsors:
Gold Sponsors
• Allegiance Trucks
• Montage Enterprises Inc.
Silver Sponsor
• Viking Cives
Bronze Sponsors
• Buyers Products
• Charles D. Stahl Sales & Service
• Dejana Truck & Utility Equipment
• Henderson Products
• Hunter Trucks
• Milton CAT
• Steel Sales Inc.
• Tenco Industries
• Winter Equipment Company
Also new this year is the exciting Cash Booth Giveaway. From noon to 2 p.m., every 30 minutes, one lucky attendee will have the opportunity to step inside the cash booth for a chance to win cash, gift cards and/or giveaways from our participating exhibitors.
Superintendent's Profile also will be awarding two grand prizes during the Expo: Two tickets for an upcoming game at the new Buffalo Bill's Highmark Stadium, and two tickets and pit passes to the Watkins Glen NASCAR race.
Exhibitors also will be giving away their own swag to attendees, including hats, T-shirts with company logos, windshield ice scrapers, tape measures, small tool sets and much more.
And finally, be sure to see page 66 in this issue for highlights from last year's Expo. In next month's issue, we'll publish the full exhibitor list.
We look forward to seeing you at the 32nd Annual N.Y.S. Highway & Public Works Expo on Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2026, in Syracuse. P
