Hi Wes!!!
I like the sound of this. Keep us informed often if you can. There'll probably be two of us!

What is the location for next year's pre-convention fly in? OK...We'll start with the accolades. From Conde Nast, Travel and Leisure, Southern Living, MSNBC.com, Forbes and many others:
One of America's Prettiest Town's,
Top Ten Cities in the USA"
"Top 10 Cities in the US and Canada"
"20 Sweet Spots for Summer Travel"
"America's Most Mannerly City"
“50 Best Romantic Getaways”
"15 Coolest Cities in North America"
"Best Romantic Getaway"
"Best Southern City"
Need some more hints? Maybe some aviator's hints:
For those of you heading to KSSI for next years grumman gathering, when you depart this city on Monday, you'll have a short jaunt of 60 miles on a initial magnetic course of 196 degrees down the beautiful Georgia coastline towards St. Simons.
Welcome to Savannah, Ga. Join us May 21-23, 2011 in Georgia's first city. Founded in 1733 by British General James Oglethorpe, Savannah was the first planned city in North America. While Savannah has our nation's largest historic districts,it isn't a staid and dull museum of old homes. It is a vibrant working city, bustling seaport, full of cultural arts, great food/drink and the birth place for many of our Grummans.
Pre convention is a casual few days for you to relax or indulge at will with or without your Grumman friends and is usually held in a larger city that the convention would not normally visit due the restrictions of controlled airspace. These pre conventions are usually planned and hosted by a local grumman enthusiast, providing the opportunity for attendees to "drop in" on the way to the actual annual meeting. Tours are planned and participated in on a casual cafeteria type of schedule. By preplanning, we are afforded the numbers in negotiating group rates for our over night and tour needs. We try to schedule at least one if not two evening meals as a group, and as always, this in an optional feature. We are vetting bids for hotel properties and have negotiated over nights and fuel discounts with an FBO.. We look forward to your visit. Please stay tuned for developing details.
