RB Airventure Dinner

Post by BrickPilot »

I'm going to be in the Chicago area the week prior to AirVenture and have convinced my wife that we need to drive up to AirVenture for one day and then catch the RBer dinner.

Any solid plan for this year? Date/time/place? Black Otter again?

it'd BETTER be at the otter! >:O


Seriously. I've been craving that steak for... how many months has it been since the last RB dinner? Yeah, that many.

Hmm, I was considering that we might want to make it a bit later in the week to try and catch the people arriving for the weekend and the people leaving before the weekend.

I plan to be there for opening day, but can't stay all week.
I think we are planning to fly back on Wednesday.

I'd be in favor of keeping it on Tuesday, but make it Wed, if you think more people will attend.

I will be arriving Thursday and leaving Saturday or Sunday. Sounds like it will be tough to get 100% RB attendance of those attending Airventures.

RB dinner

Post by jimpappas »

I may not do a full OSH this year but want to make it for the Otter. Tuesday or Thursday would work for me. Not sure the rest of the schedule now that the RV BBQ is gone.

Jeff, I like the "the wife wants to know" I was gonna use that one too

I can make Wednesday work, but we need to know quickly, before rooms between Oshkosh and Kenosha disappear.

In town schedule

Post by aparchment »

I will be in town from Wednesday evening through Sunday morning.

I am looking forward to meeting more of you guys. I met Chad and Brad last year, and of course know CJ, Thermos and Wicked Stick since they live nearby.

My vote would be Wednesday or Thursday.

A rough count suggests that so far Thursday gives the best coverage so lets go ahead with that date.

I have started a new thread with a poll to get the head count. Please vote soon so I can make the reservation.

Thanks

Thursday may work as long as it doesn't conflict with the combined Van's Dinner/RV BBQ. Anyone know what night that is happening... It's typically been Wednesday?
