Pat,

I'm wondering for the Presidential tour if we are making a group reservation or do we need to make individual ones? If we are doing it on our own, I don't see any info on their web page about how to do that. I see the comments about four shuttle buses at the times but it just says first come first serve.

Thanks,
Tim

I have contacted the museum for group reservations. That was a week ago and i am waiting for a response. I do not want to rely on what is available at the last minute. Tomorrow, I will contact the QBs in Dayton, they should have special contacts because some of them are volunteers. I will keep every one posted.
For the people that have not responded to the poll. Please respond. I am using these numbers for reservations.
The fall back is going to the main museum. It is a walk in and is very good.

Another point about the Presidential and R&D tours. You must take a special shuttle bus to get to them. It would be best to do a special tour at 9:00 and them try to fit in a visit to the main museum after that tour. I am told, it would be hard to do both special tours in one day. I have only done the main museum for one day and onle saw a small part of it.

It's a multiple choice poll, at this time, 18 have participated, and the percentages add up according to how many selected each item.
