Many members want to travel, but circumstances sometimes make it difficult.  Maybe you don\u2019t have a partner, or a travelling buddy, or maybe you just don\u2019t like to drive yourself, or can\u2019t drive at all, but you still want to go!<br \/>\nThere is always one trip or another to be considered every month.  Maybe just a day trip, a theatre and dinner outing, or even overnight trips and it\u2019s mostly with people you know and in your own age range.<br \/>\nHere are some of the trips that are happening at the Seniors Centre over the next couple of months.<br \/>\nWe have two day trips in August: one to Fallsview Casino, and the other to the Niagara Peach Festival.  Both are day trips on a deluxe coach and The Peach Festival trip will also include a visit to Magnotta Winery, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Picard Peanuts, and Chocolate F\/X.<br \/>\nIn September, we go to Casino Rama, and on a Toronto Harbour Cruise and Casa Loma.<br \/>\nThe cruise and Casa Loma trip includes lunch at the Hot House Caf\u00e9.  After lunch experience the elegance and splendour of the Edwardian era at Toronto\u2019s majestic Casa Loma.<br \/>\nBoth trips are day trips via deluxe coach.<br \/>\nAlso in September, we are tripping off to Atlantic Canada for 12 days in the fantastic Maritimes.  This comprehensive tour takes in all of the major highlights of Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia via deluxe coach.<br \/>\nFor more information and pricing contact Andrew at 905-727-3123 ext. 2610.
