Me.  Should be fun.  Expecting a little smaller than last year though, I think there's only 300 something registered so far.

That's ALL of Wyoming Wing, plus a few others.

Haha, yeah.  Last year, the national Vice Commander was there and joked about FLWG's conference had more people than several wings had members.

By the way, if anyone else is thinking about going and hasn't decided yet, remember that registration closes March 1st.

I'll be there. This will be my first FLWG Conference, so I'm looking forward to it.

It will be my first Florida wing conference as well. I have been to two other conferences, national capital wing and the national one when it was in DC in the mid nineties.

I've been to a couple in Puerto Rico Wing back in the early '90s.

You can check in to the hotel at 1400.  There are no official events Friday night for the general membership.  People will socialize at one of the 4 bars/restaurants the resort has so just wander around and see whats going on.

I decided to head down there tonight after work because it starts at 0800 and I had no idea until just a few days ago what the schedule was.  Unfortunately there are no rooms left for Friday night.  Looks like I'll be heading out at O'dark-thirty for the 2 1/2 trek south to Orlando.

Yep, I'll be the guy in blues with his eyes glazed over.

Maybe we'll see you there. It's a 7-hour drive for me. Luckily, I won't get there as late.

I called and they got me a room tonight, so I am on my way. Look for the party to start in about two hours.
