Effective January 1, 2020 I will no longer be an owner of Carolina Firearms Forum. Joanne and I are retiring and relocating to Texas. We have been working on this for several months and it's finally starting to come together. It is bittersweet to move away from good friends but we are excited about this next chapter in our lives.
Three years ago I got a phone call letting me know that our former forum home had been sold to the Canadians. Immediately, there were conference calls, plans and commitments made, and within hours CFF was born and up and running. It was up and running but it was constantly being tweaked and groomed by our smart people. Mid-December is a very busy time for all of us and we had people that were at family get togethers, church plays, Christmas parties, etc., and still these guys would sneak a few minutes and work on the forum.
We limped and struggled along with the software that allowed us the fastest way to get up and running. What happened back then still amazes me. Later, we were able to upgrade to much better software. We have some talented people here and today the site runs mostly trouble free. Many thanks to the guys behind the scenes.
Three years later we have over 3500 members and we are still growing. The moral and monetary support from our members, vendors, and sponsors has made us strong and we have been able to give back to the people that support us. This couldn't be done without you. We thank you.
My replacement as an owner is Adam Summerford,
@11B CIB. Adam has been with us for a long time and he will do a fine job and will be an asset to CFF. Please welcome Adam into his new role.
I will still be around and plan on being as active as I've always been, I'll just be farther away.
