Motorcoach Tours plus Charters, Fly-Packages & Cruises WE WELCOME YOU BACK FOR THE 2021 TOUR SEASON A lot has happened since our last tour book. As those of you who receive our E-Mail Blasts or regularly check our web site are already aware, Great Day! Tours has not been “sitting idle”, as we gradually brought back our tours for those wanting to travel, starting last June and, by July, our annual tour to Mount Rushmore showed that there was much “pent-up” demand for travel. During September we introduced a dozen tours and most sold out within days. This 2021 Tour Book has more tours to choose from than ever before. A quote from St. Augustine, the fourth-century theologian, said, “The world is a book, and • Traveling can change a person “physically and psychologically” while improving health. These experiences can lead to great new memories. • Travel does not have to be overly expensive and can reduce anxiety and depression when you separate yourself from daily routines. Various steps have evolved to adapt to the changing needs for safe travel. At the time of publication, masks are worn when boarding and de-boarding and no one is to travel if not feeling well.

    November 24, 2020 Troy, NY FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Megan Eves Marketing & Communications Associate (518) 273-3400 [email protected] Museum Association of NY Announces Museum Partners for Building Capacity, Creating Sustainability, Growing Accessibility The Museum Association of New York (MANY) is thrilled to announce that 98 museums from across New York State have been selected to participate in “Building Capacity, Creating Sustainability, Growing Accessibility”, an IMLS CARES Act grant project designed to help museums impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic share their collections and reach audiences who cannot physically visit their museums. 200 staff will be trained to use new hardware and software to develop programs that will engage their communities and reach new audiences. “We are honored to be awarded IMLS CARES act funding and excited to be able to make an impact on the work of our colleagues and their museums across New York State,” said Erika Sanger, MANY Executive Director. “We are living in an age of transition, experience a radical shift in our ways of learning and communicating. The group selected captures the diversity of our shared history in NY and our nation. The stories embodied in the museums’ collections and the storytelling talents of their interpretive staff are the heart of the project.” In this two-year project, museums will identify a program to virtually deliver to their audiences, focusing on developing programs from stories found in their collections that reveal cultural and racial diversity in their communities. “We are delighted to have been chosen for this project and cannot wait to get started,” said Brenna McCormick-Thompson, Whaling Museum & Education Center of Cold Spring Harbor Curator of Education.

  • News Release
    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 5, 2018 Contacts: Alison Jenkins, Parks & Trails New York, 518-434-1583; [email protected] Randy Simons/Dan Keefe, New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation; 518-486-1868; [email protected] New York State, PTNY Announce $450,000 in Grants to State Parks, Forests and Historic Site Partner Organizations New York State and Parks & Trails New York today announced $450,000 in state grants to 21 organizations dedicated to the stewardship and promotion of New York State parks, historic sites and public lands. These dedicated groups raise private funds for capital projects, perform maintenance tasks, provide educational programming, and promote public use through hosting special events. State Parks Commissioner Rose Harvey said, “Friends Groups and volunteers are key partners in the success of our park system. I applaud Governor Cuomo for helping these grassroots Friends organizations become stronger and more effective stewards of New York’s treasured public spaces.” DEC Commissioner Seggos said, “Across New York, volunteers are bolstering DEC’s work. From our new Campground Ambassadors program to longstanding trail stewardship efforts, volunteers are assisting DEC to protect natural resources and helping to connect more New Yorkers with nature. Thanks to Governor Cuomo’s leadership in sustaining the Environmental Protection Fund at $300 million this year, for the first time these grants are being awarded to DEC Friends groups to continue their efforts supporting our work.” Parks & Trails New York Executive Director Robin Dropkin said, “It’s inspiring to see the transformational effect of the Park and Trail Partnership Program grants and how they are enhancing the ability of Friends groups to make an even greater contribution to the stewardship of New York’s great outdoor spaces,” said PTNY Executive Director Robin Dropkin.
