Vermont Specialities and Fall Foliage Tour
October, 2008
We got our Christmas Shopping done early and visited historic Stowe and Waterbury, VT for Vermont Specialty foods and gifts. On the way over we enjoyed the last of the fall foliage, then visited the newly renovated Green Mountain Coffee Roasters café and visitors center, shopped at the Cabot Creamery Annex, Vermont Teddy Bear, Lake Champlain Chocolates, and Snow Farm Winery’s tasting corner, and stopped at the Cold Hollow Cider Mill for a tour, free samples, and a visit to their expansive gift shop full of delicious apple products and Vermont crafts. We went to the Trapp Family Lodge for a delicious lunch buffet spread, followed by a Trapp Family history tour and The Real Maria documentary film. Before heading home, we stopped at Ben and Jerry’s for a quick factory tour, a sampled their flavor of the day, and bought some ice cream from the scoop shop.

Christmas in NYC
December, 2008
We celebrated the Holiday season window shopping on 5th Avenue, strolling through Central Park, and standing under the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree, with 2 Dinners in Trendy Neighborhoods, and Orchestra/Front Mezz seating to The Radio City Christmas Show featuring The Rockettes.

Washington, DC
June, 2007

Forty-four FAN Club members enjoyed a four-day trip to Washington, DC in June. Everyone had a fabulous time and we’re all looking forward to more FAN Club adventures.

Historic Bennington, VT
August, 2006

In August 2006, 45 FAN Club members enjoyed a day exploring the sites of Bennington, VT. We started the day with a wonderful (and educational) tour of the Bennington Museum. Lunch was a very tasty treat at a local favorite, Alldays and Onions. We had a guided tour through Bennington Potters and the pottery factory, which of course ended in the gift shop. Needless to say, many brought home a lot more than they came with! We were also able to see the Bennington Monument briefly before we went home.

New England Flower Show

We traded in a day of mud season brown for flower show brilliance with a day at the New England Flower Show in Boston. The theme this year was "Welcome Home! Celebrating Our Great New England Landscape."

Amish Country
May, 2003

This past May the FAN Club took a trip to the Amish country, Gettysburg and Hershey, PA. We had a wonderful time. The weather was fantastic and the times we shared were memorable. Please take a look at a few of our favorite moments.
