How long has FROG been around?

I have no idea why my wife wants to know this but anyone know how many years FROG has existed?

The name "FROG "was brought into play during the planning stage of the first Rally started by Member "IGGY"! The person who actually came up with the "FROG "name was Member Pond Lady,"Jan Goldfield"! This was in 2010! This is all documented under "Rally and Events" FRF! Youroo! !

You can take this to the BANK he is the self appointed official FROG historian. He is Bob's appointed security guard.

Iggy's post asking 'is anyone interested in a rally' was in late 2010. FROG was actually born in the spring of 2011. Iggy spent a tremendous amount of time organizing the rally in Branson in May 2011. Iggy did persuade Forest River to make some baseball hats with our new designed logo. They shipped them to Iggy and he passed them out at the rally. Mine is hanging in the closest. Forest River kind of 'took ownership' of FROG after that, but the idea was born on this website by our members.

Youroo is named the best dumpster diver. Every morning he checks them at a rally. I think he got an award one year in fact. I think you might have been there before you bought SOB. You had your Rockwood. Good times
