The OGF Management Team is pleased to announce the formation of the OGF Hall of Fame. The HOF will recognize members that have made a significant contribution to the success of the OGF. Here are some initial guidelines:
1. The membership at large will annually nominate a member(s) who they believe have made very significant contributions to the success of the OGF.
2. The OGF Foundation Members will receive these nominees for consideration, carefully study the merits for each candidate, then vote with a 90% or higher approval required for induction.
3. The Executive Team will not participate in the HOF candidate review and will not cast any votes.
4. An Annual Zoom Meeting Announcement Ceremony will be held if there are any approved candidates for the HOF.
More details will be announced as they are formulated. We are excited about the OGF Hall of Fame as once again the OGF leads the train forum world with innovative new programs.

That is terrific. There are so many here that have enlightened me. It will be hard to pick just one.

There are some obvious candidates, including both of the gentlemen who have posted above!

Wonderful idea. There are just so many people who I have learned from and admire on this form. It will be a very difficult choice.

I am very surprised that this has not been done before as other forums have been around for a very long time and either passed on this idea or didn't think of it. Seems like a lost opportunity for them for sure. However, nice for our members that we thought of it first.
Thinking about the well being of our members is not new to us, it seems like it is all we do. And, we have earned the reputation as well as innovators. Besides, we have the luxury because of the generosity of our members to spend our quality time coming up with new ideas to make this forum better rather than having to spend a lot of time with a full time money raising commitment. Good formula, right.

By the way, Brian.... I see you have 6,000 more posts than me. You have left us mere mortals in the dust. We'll never catch up to you, but that's OK... Just keep thinking up great ideas like this one.... and executing on all cylinders. OGF is by far the best implementation of a model train forum these days. Bravo!!!!
