My advise to you is have fun in Appleton. Drink some beer, but STUDY! Make sure you wear a suit or dress pants/shirt when traveling, and enjoy training. You will bid for your base during the first 2 weeks at some point. Expect PHL, or possibly DCA right off the bat. Appleton is a lot of fun, during your weekend up there, make sure you guys go downtown to blow off some steam, as there are LOTS of little hotties running around up there. Oh and eat at the Roadhouse, also a fine establishment for meeting the ladies.

Have fun, but study your FOM hard. Make flash cards and study in groups if you can. Shop the Woodmans grocery store behind the hotel so you don't eat out the whole time up there. Don't be afraid to ask questions - there's likely somebody else wondering the same thing. There is a nice Gold's Gym just down College Ave. that you can go to for a reasonable price to get a good workout in.

Oh yeah...Leinenkugel Honey Weiss and food at the Roadhouse is a great way to spend an evening.
