Cepek to sponsor Deer & Turkey Expos

STOW, Ohio (Jan. 27, 2015) — Dick Cepek Tires & Wheels will sponsor the Deer & Turkey Expos produced by Field & Stream Outdoor Life, a series of expositions held at five Midwest venues through April.

“‘Prepare for Adventure' is not just a company slogan, it's a reflection of what fueled Dick Cepek's product innovation when he launched a small product line in 1958, and it's still the energy behind every product we make,” said Ken Warner, vice president of marketing for Dick Cepek, a subsidiary of Cooper Tire & Rubber Co.

“Dick's love of the outdoors as a true sportsman led to his innovation of truck tire and wheel products that really perform for outdoor enthusiasts. Supporting the Deer & Turkey Expos is something he would really be proud of, and we're looking forward to a great series of events.”

The five-state Expo series is scheduled for Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Wisconsin, the company said, beginning with the first Expo in Louisville, Ky., Jan. 30 through Feb. 1. Each Expo and venue will include vendors, special guests and attractions, contests, presentations and expert speakers. More information is on the Expo website.

“The Dick Cepek brand has been around for more than 50 years, and is a leading brand for the outdoor community,” said Jake Steingraeber, executive director of Field & Stream Outdoor Life Deer & Turkey Expos.

“Expo attendees are active, influential outdoorsmen that are seeking the latest products and information, and we are excited to have Dick Cepek become a part of this great event series as the official tire and wheel sponsor.”

Founded in 1963 by off-road enthusiast Dick Cepek, the Cepek brand specializes in on- and off-road products for truck, SUV and 4x4 owners.
