A MESSAGE FROM
THE DIRECTOR
The weather’s starting to heat up and so are the adventures! The change in
season means new trips, day activities and seminars and we’re excited to
share them with you. We hope you’ll grab a friend and your date book and
get some great adventures on your schedule.
We want to make you aware of one change for the new quarter. Each
event will have member and non-member pricing. If you are a member
of the Platinum Adventures Club, you’ll qualify for the member rate.
If you are not a current member, it’s easy to join: you just need to be
50+ and have a current customer relationship. If you haven’t signed
up for the club, you’ll have to pay non-member pricing to participate
in the events, so stop into the bank and fill out and sign a membership
card today!
As always, I am excited to be providing fun and educational events for you.
I have enjoyed talking with you about new places to go and things to do.
This newsletter has a few ideas that you have shared with me, and I hope
you will continue to provide feedback on what works or where you’d like
to go next! I look forward to experiencing more exciting adventures with
all of you.
Until our next adventure,
