The first annual Educational
Tour sponsored by the Adult Pro¬
gram Travel Club of the West-
Broad Street YMCA, John W.
Lyons, Sr., Chairman, traveled a
total of 5,900 miles through the
far west and Old Mexico. Twelve
states were visited and fourteen
overnight stops were made.
Eighty eight principals, teachers,
businessmen and women, lunch¬
room managers, letired teachers,
government workers, contractors,
Jeanes supervisors, students and
others, made the sixteen day trip.
1 Many Savannahians were met
in Nashville, Tenn., Denver, Colo¬
rado, Salt Lake City, Utah, and
j Los Angeles, California. Side
trips trips were made in Denver and
Los Angeles. The famous Disney¬
land, Knotts Berry Farm and Ti-
jauna in Old Mexico were visited.
One highlight of the trip was
the meeting of the Governor of
Utah and the Attorney General
of that State at Vefnai, Utah. The
Governor gaVe up his quarters for
the night so that the entire group
could be housed. Another high¬
light was a visit to the Mermon
Tabernacle and Temple in Salt
Lake City, Utah. The crowningl
event of this visit was an organ j
concert heard in the Tabernacle
given by one of the three orga-j
nists. j
the The continental trip over divide the rockies and the |
was
greatest thrill. With snow cap¬
ped peaks all around, the scene
was majestic. The tour group
went through the coldest spot in
the United States, Frazier, Colo-
rado !
A night was spent in log cabins j
at the Grand Canyon. Blankets I
were needed. The group ate in the
spacious dining room, and enjoyed
a Sunday sunrise service on the
east portico.
The stay in Los Angeles was
delightful at a big downtown hotel,
Many of the group went to
ney land, Knotts Berry Farm and
j 0 ther places of interest. Others
j visited the Dodger, Cincinnati
game where ti0 ’ 800 fans saw the
I Dodgers lose 4 to 1.
I Another highlight was the visit
! to the campus of the University
of New Mexico, in Albuquerque.
J The. buildings are beautiful and
inviting The Student Union
where all ate their meals was the
last word in comfort. |
The second annual tour that will. j
be sponsored by the Adult Program
Travel Club will last for three
weeks and six days, during
summer of 1961. More time will I
be spent in Denver, Salt Lake City,
while Mrs. McNeeley is attend¬
ing summer school at Savannah
State College. By the way,
Barbara has taken private
piano lessons at SSC, too.
