Stratford Festival Presents Evita Thursday, September 23, 2010 As ambitious as she is charismatic, Eva Duarte rises from poverty in rural Argentina to become first the mistress and then the wildly popular wife of President Juan Perón. Blending the personal with the political, this landmark of the modern musical theatre paints a dazzling portrait of a woman who helped shape history. We need not say much more. Evita will be a popular trip. An early lunch is planned at Damen’s Restaurant in St Mary’s and an early return to Stratford for some browsing time before the pro-duction. This trip will fill quickly. Cost will be $136.00 per person. |
Credit Valley Explorer
Wednesday, October 20, 2010 Here is another new adventure for our group. This is a classic 1950s train trip from Orangeville down through the Credit Valley and The Forks of the Credit, to Inglewood and return. This 3 hour trip will be accompanied by a commentary. Lunch will be provided on the train and other refreshments will be complimentary during the trip. Following the trip we make a stop at Downey’s Farm Market.

Along with the musical theatre productions we are planning a wonderful fall excursion along the Credit Valley and the Forks of the Credit on board the Credit Valley Explorer. This unique train trip will be our October event. Last fall, The four Toronto Districts had a Joint Executive meeting. At that meeting the four District Travel Coordinators decided to meet in the new year and plan a multiday trip. We met in January and through Merit Travel have planned a fall excursion to the Agawa Canyon. Since all districts will be involved we will be promoting this trip to about 8000 members. It will be important to decide if this trip interests you and if so apply quickly. This trip will probably be followed in the spring with another multi day tour.

As we write this newsletter item we do not have
confirmation of any of our trips for 2010. We have hopes that the
following will be our line-up with perhaps one or two changes.
This is a little bigger line up with a couple of different types of activities. Our focus on Musicals is broken with the Shaw’s production of the Oscar Wilde drama An Ideal Husband, and the Drayton Theatre’s Tap Dogs in a well reviewed dance show. We have expanded to include a Train Tour. As well as this the four Toronto Districts are meeting in January to see how we may better join forces to give you an even wider experience in travel. We have also incorporated some of the suggestions received through our survey last spring and are investigating others. Our first four trips will have to be booked prior to our next newsletter. If you are interested in any of these events we will have to let you know the details asap. If you have not taken one of our trips this year please take a moment to send your name and information to us. This will ensure that we keep you posted. Be aware that HST is going to make changes to our travel costs after July. We will have an added 8% on theatre tickets, and bus transportation. There is another article in this newsletter dealing with HST to help keep you informed about the changes that the HST will make. |
