TRAVEL At the time of print these are all the trips that are being offered through the Center for Active Adults.
Trips may be changed, added, filled or cancelled at any time. Sign up early to save your spot and ensure a trip will not be canceled! If something sounds interesting to you, come in to the center to grab a flyer and get all of the specific trip details. The flyers that travel companies provide are more specific than what we
are able to publish. REMINDER: You MUST pay for your trips with a check made out to the travel company offering the trip. If you have to pay a non-member fee for yourself or a friend the
additional fee must be paid separately with cash or a check made out to SLCS.
