100th year of flight

Does anyone know any information on the 100th anniversary celebration to be held in Kittyhawk
next year? Will it take place in the same location as the original flight and around December 17?

Thanks

Assuming that all the plans come together, it's gonna be huge. In addition to the North Carolina doings, the long-long delayed NASM outlet at Dulles will open, and there's observations & programs all over the place. Look for LOTS of books. One of 'em might even have my name on it!
