Can you share some history about Capital Outdoor Advertising?
Capital Outdoor Advertising actually began back in the ‘80’s after Steve Bryant re-entered the business for the second time after a stint as the Regional G.M. for National 3M. I was with Whiteco at this time in about my 12th year as Regional Manager of the South Atlantic Region (NC/SC/VA).
Steve and I competed, served together on the NCOAA Board of Directors, fought very bad legislation, and became friends. After Whiteco sold I joined Steve as company President in 1999. Capital was soon acquired by Lamar in 2001. We then started over (again), and currently have approximately 800 faces in NC/VA.
