I guess we should make this the official topic. Let us know if you are coming and when and where you'll be staying.

We'll post updates on where to go to watch the falcons. Let us know if you need directions.

I ordered the tee-shirts last week, and hope they arrive in time.  Still haven't made a reservation yet, though.  I re-checked the downtown hotels this weekend when we made three day trips to Rochester!    At least we saw some awesome flying by the Callidora, Beauty and Archer  clap

A double feature is playing at the Strasenburgh Planetarium through the summer that includes the "Falcons of Toronto" as one of the films. Check here for details:

http://www.rmsc.org/StrasenburghPlanetarium/Schedule/

My guess is that we'll see our friends at CPF in the film and maybe even some of our offspring. It's playing through the summer but only at 4:00 PM; a good time though for viewing the show, getting something to eat afterwards, and still having some time left for falcon watching...

How interesting!  Any idea when the film was produced?  I didn't notice in the little blurb.

Yes, a film on the Rochester Falcons would definitely have to be a double feature!

The Broad St bridge still seems to be the most frequent gathering spot for fw'ers.
From there we go where the PFs are.

Be sure to check the Twitter topic before leaving your hotel. This will usually give you a better idea of where the falcons and falcon watchers are located. Then use the Falcon Landmarks map to find that location.

Any suggestions for those of us who will be computerless while in Rochester?
