Preserving a Legacy: Help Save eHobbyHouse.

Donation protected
In the heart of our town, there exists a remarkable establishment—a haven of joy and wonder that has stood the test of time. For an incredible 42 years, our beloved eHobbyHouse RC Hobby Store has been an emblem of passion, camaraderie, and the enduring spirit of the RC hobby community.

The captivating tale of eHobbyHouse began with its visionary founder, Jay Replogle. With an unwavering love for remote-controlled wonders, Jay transformed a modest shop into a paradise for hobbyists, a place where dreams took flight, and lifelong memories were made. For over four decades, Jay's passion and dedication brought joy to countless individuals, creating a legacy that has become woven into the fabric of our community.

After Jay's retirement, the reins of our cherished store were passed on to David, who shared Jay's passion and commitment to fostering the RC hobby community. Under David's stewardship, eHobbyHouse continued to thrive, offering a wide range of products, expert advice, and a welcoming atmosphere that attracted enthusiasts of all ages.

As time marched on, the weight of financial challenges grew, and David made the difficult decision to find a successor who could carry forward the store's enduring legacy. That successor was Greg, a devoted customer who had frequented eHobbyHouse as a child. Greg's love for the store never waned, and he saw the opportunity to fulfill his lifelong dream of becoming its custodian.

Under Greg's care, eHobbyHouse continued to be a beacon of passion, a sanctuary where enthusiasts could indulge in their shared love for remote-controlled wonders. Greg's dedication to preserving the store's heritage was evident in his commitment to providing exceptional customer service, sourcing the finest products, and nurturing a sense of community that had become the store's hallmark.

However, the unexpected arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic has cast a dark shadow over our beloved eHobbyHouse. The devastating impact of the pandemic, coupled with the resulting economic downturn, has dealt a severe blow to the store's financial stability. The closure of businesses, the limitations on social gatherings, and the financial hardships faced by customers have significantly impacted eHobbyHouse's ability to keep its doors open.

Closing the doors of our beloved eHobbyHouse would not only mark the end of an era but the loss of a community's collective heart. For 42 remarkable years, the store has been a place where friendships were forged, dreams took shape, and countless memories were created. Its closure would leave a void felt not only by those who have shared in its magic but by future generations who will be deprived of the same joy and inspiration.

We cannot allow this cherished legacy to fade away. We believe in the enduring power of dreams, the resilience of community, and the preservation of extraordinary institutions. Together, we can rally to save our beloved eHobbyHouse RC Hobby Store, a pillar of our community for an astounding 42 years.

We have launched this GoFundMe campaign, "Preserving a Legacy: Help Save Our Beloved eHobbyHouse RC Hobby Store," in a humble plea for your support. Your contribution, whether through a donation, sharing our story, or spreading the word, will make a meaningful difference. Every act of kindness brings us closer to securing the future of our cherished store, ensuring that eHobbyHouse's doors remain open to inspire, delight, and unite RC hobbyists for years to come.

Let us stand together, a community bound by our shared love for remote-controlled wonders, and show the world that the flame of passion can never be extinguished. Together, we can defy the odds, uphold the legacy of
