I understand that the grounds are open on Sunday, July 22, but am curious as to whether anything of interest happens on Saturday.

Lots of aircraft landing. Lots of neat aircraft on the grounds to look at. Lots of pilots to talk with.
There are a lot worse places to be than KOSH on the Saturday preceeding the show. ;-)
Be warned that some of the bath houses will not be open yet and the food vendors will not be setup yet, just a few will be. But you do get to watch the aircraft coming in and that is usually a show all to it self.
If you drive in, they may not let you in unless you have a letter from one of the volunteer organizations. If you fly in, no prob; look around all you want. We got in one Saturday (drove) around 3 PM; would not let us in.
I am confused, the website says that the campground is open with early arrivals now.
Is auto parking closed? Or what is closed?
Sorry; I was slightly wrong there. Yes, Camping is open; I was just saying that onthe Saturday before the show starts, the main admission gate off the blue lot wouldn't let us in. Yeah, yeah, I know; can't get in if you just drive up, but camp and you have full access....
Of course,that could have been up to the individual at the gate, too.... Like I said, if I had a volunteer letter, they would have let me in. Or, I guess...If I could have been more convincing of a reason to get in. ;-)
