A butterfly must be extremely patient while restricted in its cocoon, yet it emerges resilient and ready to fly. Doesn’t that also describe our club? Our Select 50 members have shown remarkable compassion and fortitude during the last year. Now, we are all ready to seek adventure! The future of travel is looking brighter each day, and we are so excited to share it with you!

After celebrating her birthday and Mother’s Day with her sons, Angela spent the month of June enjoying her sabbatical, including a trip to Seattle to visit her beloved granddaughters. She made the most of her free time by spending time outdoors with friends and family and hosting a garage sale.

Karla’s daughters surprised her for Mother’s Day with flowers and a gift delivered to her office. Amid weekly trips to Greenfield, she created her balcony garden and said goodbye to her fish tank – the fish were unavailable for comment.

We’ve all waited a long time to start going on our fun day trips and exciting adventures, and our first day trips of 2021 filled up very quickly! We want to remind you that Select 50 club members have first priority when registering for club events.
