It is a Zach's house which is right across the street from the EAA Museum. Thursday night and I think it starts at 5 or 6

From Zack's original post.


Here it is (finally!)

Who: Jenn & Zack Baughman
What: 4th Annual AirVenture WIX Gathering & Cookout
When: 6pm, Thursday July 30th
Where: 1919 W. Waukau Ave, Oshkosh, WI 54902
Please RSVP to zbaughman@eaa.org by Friday July 24th (although we won't turn you away if you just show up)

Details:
My wife Jenn and I will be hosting the 4th Annual Timeless Voices volunteers/WIX Gathering & Cookout at our place during AirVenture. We'll supply all kinds of food and beverage, but anyone who wants to bring something extra is more than welcome.

The house is located at 1919 W. Waukau Ave, which is right at the southeast corner of Poberezny Rd and Waukau Ave, right on the edge of the EAA campground and within close walking distance of the Museum. Waukau Ave leads straight down to the new FAA control tower. The P-47 banner will be out in the front yard, so you should be able to find the house fairly easily.

Anyone and everyone is welcome to come, just try to let me know ahead of time so we can make sure to prepare enough food. Thanks much and we look forward to another good time with good friends, good food, and perhaps another late night walk down to Bikini Nights!

And for those who have read the OSH horror stories (mostly from Brandon :D ) about how nasty the heat and humidity can be...

This has been a cool, dry summer. I've had to cut my lawn once in the past three weeks. Some hit & miss thunderstorm activity has been forecast for Friday-Sunday, but the week looks pretty dry with high temps in the upper 70's; overnight low's in the 50's. If you were planning on sleeping under a wing in your skivvies, you might want to bring a blanket.

If any of you Oshkosh guys feels really crazy... (I know, I know) would ya'll consider snapping shots of various L-birds and emailing them to me? I'd be really curious to see what kind of L-bird turnout there is.
