    It had been a while since I looked out our stats so I was a little shocked at what I just saw...
    We are coming up on the 5th Anniversary of the GIRS forums (the website has been up for a few years longer in one form or another).
    Since it's inception in November 2007, there have been 15,000 topics posted and over 100,000 replies.
    Not bad for a little saltwater club in Iowa!

    That's probably due to the great GIRS webmaster. Thanks for all your hard work over the last few years JB.

    Awesome news on the 5 year mark.
    Just curious how long the actual GIRS club has been around?

    Thanks all, but I had little to do with it. This is an achievement of all the members of the site.

    Wow, I didn't realize it had only been five years that the website was up. Seems we moved to Iowa just in time. Truth be told, we would never have known about the club without the website, and certainly wouldn't have been as active as we had been. I would say the website is an integral part in the success of the club. Thanks for the great work JB!
