STAGESTRUCK TOURS FOR 2012!!!!!
Welcome to a new exciting year of travel destinations! We hope that you will find some tours in here that appeal to you. Many of you have asked for more concerts at American Music Theatre so we added them. Along with dinner theatres, a Branson trip, Women of Faith and a Myrtle Beach week for both the golfer and non-golfer, we think we have a great schedule lined up. A word of advice, signup earlyÉ.a lot of these theatres and venues like to know how many in the group, weeks in advanceÉso donÕt wait until the last minute to signup.
Also if you look at your address label, you will have one of two codes, an ÒOKÓ or a ***. I try to keep good records of who travels on our trips through the years although I did have a computer crash in 2008 and lost a bunch of data! At the rate that postage is going, I am going to trim the mailing list down so if you have gone on more than 2 trips with us since 1999 you have an ÒOKÓ and will continue to receive the newsletter. If you just started traveling with us naturally you might not have two trips, so disregard the ***! You can always check out the website for the latest tours.
