Every time I look at a calendar, it seems it’s a month closer to Convention time! So far I’ve received Convention registrations from only about half of the people registered at the hotel. Just a reminder that the registration fee goes up $25 on June 1. Also, space on the Pictured Rocks and Soo Locks boat tours is limited and will be accommodated first registered, first served basis. In addition, the restaurants at which we’re having group meals are requesting head counts by June 1. Summer is high season in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, and walk-in service for large groups is all but impossible. Convention registration forms may be downloaded at https://cessna170.org/wp-content/upload ... Form-1.pdf. If you have a printed form you haven’t yet filled out please download a fresh one, as several omissions and errors have been corrected since it was first published.

Also, just a reminder that convention shirt order forms are separate from the convention registration forms this year. I fear that many who have registered for the convention may not realize that we are offering shirts this year, as only six registrants have included an order for shirts so far. The shirt order form may be downloaded at https://cessna170.org/wp-content/upload ... r-Form.pdf.

Due to some changes to my work/vacation plans it looks like I'll finally be making it to Oshkosh this year. And since I'll (unfortunately) be driving I'm going to do my best to make it to the convention. Unfortunately since this also means I'll be working in the mornings from the van, my schedule is still going to be somewhat in the air. I will send in my registration pre-emptively so save a spot at least for the latter part of the week.

I look forward to meeting all of you in July!

Looking forward to meeting you too Paul! Based on the address on your registration we probably have some mutual friends.
