Got my postcard reminder this week. Thanks for sending these out. Should be a great gathering. Is there camping available on the airport?

Sorry for the late reply. I've been farming.
Camping is at the airport. Rex has some private hangers with showers that can be used.
We are also checking with local hotels for group rate availability.
If you or anyone else would like a room, please let me or Rex know so we can get a count. Thanks, T.W.

Hello Skymaster Owners.
I'm rebuilding a 1965 C337, BUT won't be flying by August. So if you all don't mind I'm planning on flying my (Freshly rebuilt) 1969 C172. I'm looking forward to meeting more C337 owner/pilots! Hope to see you all there.

I'm looking forward to attending too. Not sure if over nite but will check schedule as we move closer to the date. Is there a specific agenda?

Jerry, Toward your question about the agenda. Herb probably described it best as a gathering.
We plan on starting the arrivals with a meet and greet, right after noon on sat. Aug.1st. Campers can get set up and arraignments made for hotel transportation (please let us know ahead of time ).
The cookout will start at 5:00 pm, with Mike Jackson speaking afterwords.
We're having a campfire Sat. Evening (weather permitting) with Bill Hayes,an aviation attorney, musician, and Skymaster owner, providing entertainment.
Sunday morning we'll provide a light breakfast when we get around to it and John Russman of Detroit agreed to talk with us about Skymaster maintenance.
Our plans are done by noon, so your plans can take over.
The goal is for this to be a low cost/ fun affair.
Prepare to share your joys and concerns of the 337 , and wake up the town of Fremont
