HARPER, Kan. – After a 10-month nationwide campaign that proved there’s no place like the ag community, DewEze®, a division of Harper Industries, Inc., is proud to announce the conclusion of its “Dorothy” Square-Body sweepstakes.
The campaign officially launched at the National Farm Machinery Show in February 2025 and featured “Dorothy,” a beautifully restored 1984 Chevy square-body equipped with an original DewEze bale bed, a nod to the brand’s deep roots in agriculture. Participants earned entries by purchasing DewEze gifts and gear through DewEzeGear.com, receiving one entry for every dollar spent.
Over the course of the campaign, “Dorothy” traveled 5,271 miles to dozens of trade shows, rodeos, parades, and industry events, connecting DewEze with farmers, ranchers, and square-body enthusiasts and sharing the brand’s history along the way. After more than 100,000 total entries, DewEze is pleased to share that “Dorothy” is heading to her final home in Nebraska. The company is currently in the process of contacting the randomly selected winner and looks forward to making a formal announcement soon.
“This campaign was a fun and meaningful way to celebrate the DewEze brand and the people who have supported it for generations,” said Melissa Bergkamp, President of Harper Industries. “From the creativity behind the giveaway to the enthusiasm we saw at each event, ‘Dorothy’ sparked connection, conversation, and nostalgia. We want to congratulate Nancy on winning this one-of-a-kind truck and thank everyone who participated to help make this campaign such a success.”
While this chapter has come to a close, the DewEze + “Dorothy” giveaway reflects the brand’s legacy built on durability and innovation, committed to the next generation of producers.
