Hey Russell Smoot, this Post is for you, Sir

We are closing in on the designated 3 year window we had set aside for our attempt to provide a service for our Neighbors in a place we proudly call home. I have often joked about our site being the Best Kept Secret in Carroll County as despite our best efforts just couldn’t find a way to reach the masses.

My Wife and I established our own Non-profit organization called OneofUs.Care and just finished our goal of planting $50,000.00 of our money πŸ’° into various areas in and around our County.

Ben Tickle and Greg Talley were the beneficiaries of the final piece of the Gifted money which left just one question about the future – what to do in regards to our third site ?

The plans started out Pie πŸ₯§ in the Sky to say the least. The goal was to create a High School Sports version of ESPN. The plan was laid out on paper as well as in my mind but the conversation I was chasing simply never presented itself.

The second largest donation came in the form of returning to our Home Base, which is Rick Nester’s Softball program. Thanks to some assistance from a few people the scoreboard shown above will be in place on Opening Day when Emma Leath fires her first pitch.

The plan up until roughly one week ago was to post a final Thank You to everyone who bought into the plan and find the next challenge in life besides the Softball program. The site has been ours for 15+ years now and regardless of the outcome here in the coming days it will always remain an active part of who we are.

So a heartfelt Thank You to Mr. Smoot for his kindness ❀
