The California Fire Museum (CFM) and the Orange County Fire Historical Society (OCFHS) are working on a possible merger of the two organizations. Both have the same goals, which is to build a fire museum & safety center here in Orange County.
The push at present is to build the fire museum - safety center at the Orange County Great Park. CFM is presently in the process of putting together a feasibility study managed by the Great Park Design Studio. By CFM & OCFHS joining forces this will give us a much better work force and also better for our fund raising.
Stay in touch through this blog for updates on the merger and the feasibility study with the Great Park
We also are now on Twitter for quick updates at www.Twitter.com/CalifFireMuseum
