WHEN:
Tuesday
July 27th, social hour begins around 5 PM BYOB-EER
& chair.
$10
"donation" per person, hopefully food prices have not doubled, we'll know when we get there.
PLEASE bring a chair this year!
RSVP:
...as always,
this is a test, based on previous years RSVP responses we have determined 70%
of you
either drink a lot when you do your email or your skills at following the
simplest of
written instructions are questionable, ...even if they come with "M"
drawings.
We wish to
thank the remaining 30% for making our lives easier.
So, if you
are thinking of coming to the dinner, DO NOT HIT THE REPLY BUTTON!
Instead, please send us an email with a one line
response:
Please do
it like this:
email to: CozyGirrrl@...
Subject: RSVP
Body of text: # of people, name(s), email, cell
EXAMPLE of text: 2, Chrissi, Randi, CozyGirrrl@..., 867-5309
That way
there will be enough food and beverage, you wouldn't want to run out would you?
There is a
threshold where we may need to make a 2nd pot, so real numbers are important.
IMPORTANT:
1. If you RSVP, please make sure you do receive a "Thank
You!" email from us within 48 hours.
2. Assume picnic tables are not available so bring a chair if you are able to
scrounge one.
We will try to bring tables and any local people who bring some
will be really appreciated!
3. No vehicles,
there is absolutely no parking available, you must park in the very near by
BLUE lot and walk.
Towards the end of the day it is free, park up as close as
you can get to the corner by the
Fly In Theater there is a walk through, very
convenient.
4. Bicycles, golf carts, strollers etc must be off the
road and not on our neighbors campsites.
5. We do not know of anyone who will be donating
alcohol so feel free to BYOB or pass a
hat and we will make sure there is a run
to Walmart for ICE COLD BEER.
There will be coolers full of ice.
6. =No animals!=
,we LOVE animals, just not when & where we are preparing and serving food.
7. If you RSVP in the 10 days before Airventure you
will probably not receive an
acknowledgement from us we're either on the road
or already there and EAA WiFi is spotty.
8. Count on mosquitoes! Spray yourself.
You will
need your chair and maybe a blanket for the movie next door, It is too early
for the schedule to know what the movie will be Tuesday night at the Fly In
Theater but it is usually good.
Count on
mosquitoes! Spray yourself.
.... or
stick around and socialize!
Our trusty
band of well trained and highly skilled volunteers look forward to seeing you
all there!

Last chance people! We're leaving St Louis and will be on the road to Oshkosh
on Thursday July 15th. Please RSVP before that if you can it would be really helpful
in determining how much to prepare. We are nearing one 15 gallon pot of Jambalaya.
If you want plenty of return trips to the serving line, sign up,
get your canard friends to sign up too and we'll plan on a second pot.
So far we have about 120 RSVP's, keep them coming. Thank you to those who follow
instructions for RSVP format, to the rest of you, please do not build airplanes.
I drove up to Oshkosh the night before Camp Scholler opening day to make certain we'd have
the usual site for the dinner, mission accomplished! It is beautiful up there.

Dear Canardians,
We hate to break a long running tradition but for unforeseen reasons we cannot make it to Oshkosh this year and therefore cannot host a Canard Dinner this year. See you next year! Chrissi, Randi and our incredible crew; Bob Tilley, Vickey & George Rippeto, and our effervescent hostess, Elizabeth! |

If y'all haven't done the math just yet, the Cozy-3 build in the
Aeroplane Workshop at OSH will be quite understaffed this year. If
anybody has a few hours to spare extolling the virtues of the canard
design to the public, contact me for details.

I can guarantee you'll receive a highly valued EAA volunteer T-shirt, all the mystery meat sammy's you can stomach (pun intended) including wa-wa and other bottled drinks, as well as the priceless admiration of fellow canard builders/owners/drivers. As to the laid back dinner at The Roxy Super Club in downtown OSH, it's still on. Text/email me with a yea/nay, and expected head count. Menu will be later, anticipate we'll get the entire banquet room this time. On 5/27/2022 3:10 PM, cozygirrrl via

I emailed Roxy for a Thursday reservation, no reply back. I seem to recall the dinner USED to be held on Thurs, recent years on a Friday for reasons you state. If you have any inside info about OSH scheduling, please let me know, I only find out during Airventure :-/ As to volunteering at the Aeroplane Workshop, the scheduling is done online now. Somewhat of a pain, but much easier for my boss Mark Forss. I'll send the link as soon as I know. Schedules are usually AM/PM slots, not all day. I'm typically slinging epoxy at the build table (I don't like people! ;) ), other volunteers are chatting up the audience or helping in the slinging department. Rick On 6/14/2022 11:41 AM, KEN4ZZ via

For those that are curious, I received a URL from my 'boss' at EAA to signup for the volunteer Aeroplane Workshop (as well as the general workshops) a few days ago. Not wanting to post the link to the general public where the script kiddies and/or spammers can pick it up, I forwarded the link per his desire to volunteer. Not only do you get an ever popular volunteer T-shirt, assumed to be red this year too, you'll also receive a pretty nice name tag, the key to the executive wash room, as well as the schedule and location for the free grub (both AM and PM). The red T-shirt combined with the name tag is your entry pass... But where.... Hmmm.... Rick PS: No word back from Roxy, will send them a follow up email shortly. I may even call.

Rick, Sign Michelle and I up for a 4-hour shift (less is ok, just not more) “…extolling the virtues of the canard design to the public…” We are available Wed., 7/27 – 7/30. We are building a Cozy Mark IV and are on Chapter 19.
And sign us up as a yea (2 of us) on the dinner.
We’ll need details on the workshop location and the dinner time/location. We have not been to Oshkosh in ~8 years and have never been to the Cozy dinner.
Let us know if you have any questions or if we can be of further assistance.
Thank You, Mike & Michelle O’Grady (206) 384-2549

Most excellent! signup link is below, do the best you can. Make a note on the second page 'memo' field (it's a two page signup) that you can do AM or PM. I'll be at Airventure on Thursday, text my cell for details and the nickle tour 303-589-2063. The work is REAL casual in nature. EAA could probably use help at the composite Workshop too, a bit more structured, and more "See Spot Run" skill set. We (Aeroplane Workshop and Composite workshop) have been known to fill in if one or the other is short on help. EAA will probably provide a red volunteer t-shirt, mystery meat sammich for lunch, and all the water/soda/gatorade you can drink. Oh, and after 20 hours of volunteer (in my division) you get a week long wrist band for next year. All venues close together, look for homebuilt registration building on your maps, or the NE corner of airport, just before entering Warbirds. Dinner is at the Roxy, an upscale supper club in downtown Oshkosh, around $20/plate plus drinks. Ground transport magically appears, and it MAY be on Friday. My memory ain't what it used to be. Thanks again! Rick On 6/29/2022 3:19 PM, Michael &
