Steve has been involved with the club for many years, starting in the early 80s as a groomer driver and to this day remains on the weekly rotation as one of the most dedicated groomer operators. Besides being an ambitious volunteer, Steve enjoys spending time with his granddaughters, bird and bow hunting, archery 3-D, and snowmobiling his favorite trails, which include 10, 10A, 19, 19B, 20, 9, and 13. He is motivated by the thousands of individuals who compliment and thank him as a groomer operator and for what snowmobiling means in the small community of Mercer, WI.
