The trip committee is looking for ideas for 2023. We plan to venture to Perry County for the Covered Bridges Tour. This will take place in spring and fall. Plans are to go see "Moses" at Sight and Sound Theatre in Lancaster, Camp Eder Senior Day Camps, and another train trip. We are also looking into a 2 night late summer (September) overnight at the beach + many more.
If you have any ideas throughout the year, please share with Cathy Graver, Rausa Roscinski, Arlene Johnson, Elaine Mowery or Ruth Ciarrocca at the Senior Center.
