    April 2021 Bus Book

    January — April 2021 Bus Book “TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW YOU WILL BE MORE DISAPPOINTED BY THE THINGS YOU DIDN’T DO THAN BY THE ONES YOU DID DO” H. JACKSON BROWN JR. Page 1 Kings Point Bus Trips Vesta partners with Glory Tours, a third party vendor, for all of our coach trips! Glory Tours has been working with Vesta in offering day/overnight trips for over 6 years as a part of the Kings Point coach trip operation. In the process of them absorbing all the coach trips, and after analyzing extensive historical data and numerous variables while planning the upcoming bus book, Glory Tours is implementing the following new processes: • For all restaurant ONLY tours, Glory Tours will no longer have a tour guide specialist onboard. The goal is to keep these trips affordable by eliminating the expense of a tour guide for these simple outings. • Glory Tours will also utilize a smaller shuttle bus for trips when it is feasible, and when we have enough residents signed up to also help avoid cancellation of a trip. • Rays Games-Glory Tours is moving designated seats to a less expensive section, but still allowing for some upgrades at an additional cost, if you choose to sit closer. This will also bring the cost down for the more expensive games that are not on Thursdays (Ray vs. Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, etc.) Pre-register outside of the Box Office in the main lobby All ticketed tours are non-refundable. Tours go rain or shine, unless the event is cancelled by the venue/vendors due to weather conditions, etc.

It does seem hardly anytime ago that it was the subject of a hot debate regarding traffic flow over it. Anyway, the river still flows downstream, and the picture shows the downstream view.

Saturday’s morning talk, and this newsletter, are the last of the 2018-19 session before we gear up to start again in September. The success of any U3A year, and the ‘gearing up’ process before the next one begins – the membership renewals process involves a great deal of work on the part of a team of office volunteers, and our Membership Secretary in particular – depend entirely on the willingness and commitment of the different teams of volunteers who make it all possible. So, it is appropriate for my open remark to be a heartfelt ‘Thank you’ to all those of you who volunteer in any capacity and thereby keep our branch running.
