All credential packs have now been mailed to the 170+ people who've registered for the RV Builder's Family Reunion during AirVenture at Oshkosh on Wednesday July 25, starting at 6 p.m.
When you receive your packet, please drop me a line (the e-mail address will be on the enclosed letter) to let me know you received it. Please check to be sure the envelope contains tickets for the BBQ (which also doubles as a door prize ticket, even though I don't really know for sure if we have any), and a BBQ badge so other people will know who you are.
Updates on the BBQ (including news on the tent...this is big, as far as I'm concerned) are on the Web site at:
http://home.comcast.net/~bcollinsrv7a/eaa/
The organizers would like to thank those of you who registered early. You have no idea how much this helps us order the correct amount of food. The number-1 thing we heard last year is "have people pre-register!", and so that's what we're doing.
To encourage your pre-registration (before June 1), the ticket price will increase on June 1. Checks are not cashed until the week before AirVenture, so if you intend to attend, there's really nothing to lose by pre-registering, and everything to gain (unless you like standing in line). If we have underwriters for the BBQ, those who have pre-registered will have their money returned (assuming all expenses are covered).
There are a couple of important points for those attending:
(1) Do NOT attempt to drive into Camp Scholler, or even over to the BBQ site if you're staying in Camp Scholler. In a week -- or so -- we'll post parking information and details on how to get to the site (or you can just click on the link to last year's BBQ. Same thing.)
(2) If you intend to sit, bring a chair. EAA 32 (St. Louis) is donating the use of some tables, but these will all be taken up with the much-more-organized chow and beer (soft drinks too) lines.
(3) If you live in the Minnesota region and can help haul a cooler (or even my wife's grill) over to the BBQ (and back), please let me know.
(4) Make sure you let us know what you'd like to eat. Be specific and we'll make sure we get the right kind of beer or soft-drink, or a veggie burger etc. Again, see the Web site for more.
We look forward to seeing you. But, again, PLEASE help us out by letting us know you're coming.
