Hey everyone,

I was trying to get some info on the history of the Roaster's Guild.  I searched the site, but they don't have much for their beginnings.

If any of you could throw down some info that would be great.  

I could use original member numbers, when they officially became a guild, etc.

Thanks.

Two things I can tell you

a) limited history I know... Don Schoenholt originally headed up the foundation, but for a variety of reasons, it kind of stagnated. Mike Ebert came in to head it up, and was a lightning rod that made things all fall in place. Guys to talk to about the Guild - obviously Chris D, Dismas, Terry at Stumptown, also Barry Jarrett.

b) I'll give Mike Ebert a call and tell him you're thinking about an article. I think Mike would like to help out, if he has time. Email me your phone number again, willya

Mark
