Need Student Destination Ideas?
We are excited to announce some great student group tour destinations for this school year. When it comes to student group travel, Lee is our expert at putting together exciting and educational tours that will give your students invaluable experiences and memories they will carry with them for a lifetime. After attending a recent SYTA conference, Lee came back to the office armed with great ideas and information that allowed her to put together several great student group packages.
Can you imagine your students performing in Branson, Missouri? How about a backstage tour of Radio City Music Hall in NYC? Or seeing sea life up close and personal at Sea World in Orlando? Let’s not forget all the historical and educational experiences that await in Washington DC. These are just a few of the many experiences you can offer your students by booking a group tour with us.
It’s never too early to start planning. Check out our newest Student Group Tours and contact us today for a quote.
New School Year – New Roles
The new school year is under way, so watch out for children crossing the streets, or waiting for the school bus along the road. Remember, if a school bus is flashing its lights, you need to stop at least twenty feet from it whether you are in the oncoming lane, or behind it. This is to ensure that the driver is able to see you and get the children on the bus safely. It is not just a safety recommendation, it is the law.
As always, our offices are a buzz with activity. Jan, Jon and Bonnie have been very busy organizing the school bus schedules for children and families in many communities. Let me tell you, it’s a tough a job, but they do it well and are always able to squeeze a smile or laugh in there. In addition to that, Bonnie is also working on the charter schedules and tours. If you have any questions about the bus schedule, or are interested in having a charter tour, Bonnie is your go-to gal!
Lee is also excited about the new school year and has just returned from the annual SYTA conference – a student and youth travel organization. She’s pumped up with all the new information she gathered and is looking forward to creating unique student tours for your group or class. She has mentioned that she can’t wait to share and apply some of what she has learned. If you would like to arrange a student or youth group tour, contact Lee – She’ll be able to set you up!
Judy has recently taken over the Special Needs Tour area of our services and loves it! She’s also putting together this year’s catalog of tours, which is expected to be available really soon. She can’t wait to share all the fun and exciting destinations that have been lined up.
