  Originally, this site was created by Robin Brouwers for our camping club. Robin is leaving the club and moving to Florida, but he is still available to help us make an ownership transition. My goal is to link this website ownership to the club, and not an individual. We have a club credit card that we would like to use. Can you please help us make this transition. Thanks.

  Hi,

  Here are the steps you need to follow:

  1. Create a new account for your club:

  https://wordpress.com/start/user

  2. Ask Robin to add that account to the site as an administrator:

  3. Once that’s done, Robin can transfer ownership of the site and the upgrades to that account:

  4. Once the transfer is complete, you might want to remove Robin from the site:

  Follow the instructions in each step and if you have any questions, let me know, and I’ll help you.
