About the EVOCHQ.com 2.0 Update

For the past year and a half, there have been some personal family-related health hurdles for me, the administrator, 5pt0Joe.  This caused the finishing touches to be delayed for this community website.  Shortly after my hiatus started, there was another hurdle regarding the software used.  The company who developed the software was sold and the purchaser dissolved all support for the software and no longer provided updates.  This was a big blow for thousands of developers who relied on this company for support and assistance.  Needless to say, I had to find an alternative and nearly start from scratch.  Things took a backseat, but I poked at it when I could.  With an alternative found, I had to keep things simplified and scaled back, which in review, is not necessarily a bad thing.  Sometimes less is more.

With all the community feedback, this community website is now leaner and meaner.  There are still a few features I'm working on for the near future, but it is now ready to start being the community website that it was originally intended to be.  With this most recent update, you'll find it easier to engage with others in the community and find information.  As always, feedback is considered and encouraged!

The goal is to add content and organize it throughout the remainder of 2024, so feel free to join, add your event, group/club, museum, etc. In 2025, there will be a rather large and very special announcement that many members have requested to see happen.

About EVOCHQ (Emergency Vehicle Online Community Headquarters)

What originally started as a website for the Emergency Vehicle Owners Club (EVOC) on Facebook has evolved into the new EVOCHQ.com. This new social community is a bridge between First Responders, Emergency Vehicle Owners, Events, Museums, Collectors, Enthusiasts and many more.  We will be the premiere source for first response-themed events to attend (collector events, car shows, etc.), non-profits to support (police & fire museums), and a compilation of emergency vehicles that can be seen at various events around the country.  As time goes on, we will expand our focus and tailor it to the growing needs of the community.

In July 2024, EVOCHQ.com was revamped to be simpler, yet more encompassing.  EVOCHQ is a perfect blend of social media, discussion, a listing of museums and events to support, an Emergency Vehicle Registry, and more coming as it continually grows.  The purpose of this website is to bring everyone together and make information easy to find for everyone.  We aren't replacing what is out there.  We are simply making it more accessible in a modern way that people are already familiar with.

EVOCHQ Focal Points

The primary focus for this website (in no particular order):

1. Members (Supporters, First Responders, Emergency Vehicle Owners, Collectors, Enthusiasts, etc.)
2. Events (Emergency Vehicle Shows, Collector Events, etc.)
3. Emergency Vehicle Registry (and a future Showcase as well)
4. Official Clubs or Groups (mostly geared towards collectors and such)
5. Non-Profits to Support (like Museums)
6. Department/Agencies (As the site grows, we think this would be a great way for agencies to interact as well.)
7. Reference Websites (that archive valuable information)
