In a small statement regarding the position recently vacated by John Solley, the EWA announced it's new EWA Senior Vice President of Operations, Chris Furman. The EWA was quoted in saying "We hope that the addition of Mr. Furman will help to bring stability to the EWA, and that he will help to keep us on the path of success that we are currently on." The SVPO has been a game of musical chairs lately, held by former-CWF owner Steve Myers, then the aforementioned Solley, and now Furman, and so hopefully, this will give Gates one less thing to worry about.
