I’m sorry to report the passing of Northwoods Chapter founder and friend, Wayne Schoepke. My sister, Karen Dalle Ave just called with the sad news. I simply know that he passed today.
The work he did for the club was outstanding and highly appreciated by everyone!!!
He will be missed, but not forgotten. I only wish I had the opportunity to meet such a
“Great Man”

Wayne was one of the first guys I meet at my first nationals at the Bridge Inn back in about 1986. He and Les Stephenson kind of took me under there wings and welcomed me to the meet and to the club. He was a fountain of knowledge for old outboards. I remember also visiting his display old old iron in Sayner Wisconsin back in the day. I had the good fortune to talk to him for a bit at this years Tomahawk meet & was glad I did. Rest In Peace my friend.
