Woody

Founder - Gone but not forgotten.
Since today is the Boards Birthday -- and for anyone wanting to know -- Jim covered the timeline in this thread.-- http://forum.gon.com/showthread.php?t=15504

For those asking about the Board’s history and without trying to bore you -- here is a condensed version.

It began as an idea to keep in touch with our Taxidermy Customers and quickly developed into a source of information for anyone visiting the outdoors. – My thanks to the Mods and Members who have made it all possible, also GON for allowing us to keep on, keeping on.

After a lot of thought and many hours --- this is the original drawing I submitted to the web designers and by clicking http://www.woodystaxidermy.com/ you can see they stayed close as possible to the drawing although we made a few changes later.

And here it is nine months later on Christmas Day 2001. -- The Campfire was added about 2 weeks after we went online.

I guess you could say -- we've come a long way.;) -- Happy Birthday to all who have stayed with us through some rough times.
