I mentioned this to a few members at the MAM C3 Fest / C3VR 2011 Gathering.
I sent an e-mail to a few members in the area.
And I believe Adam has sent an e-mail to members as well.
I have called a few places to make reservations.
Now we need some commitments.
Please read the info below and make some decisions.
Your decisions can be changed and modified, if necessary.
I have estimated we will have about 30 people. I hope I am close.
Looking forward to a great time.
Dave

Dave, thanks for putting the work into this.  I hope we can join, but I won't know for sure until we get much closer.  If I had to guess, I'd say we won't (Wits Enddang it!) be able to make it.
 
But I'm gonna try!!  It sounds like a great time



I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

I fixed the link for the Curtiss Museum. That is an interesting place for aviation history.
If you went on this trip a few years ago, you know how much fun it was then. This one will be even better.
