TRIP TO CALIFORNIA FOR THE TOURNAMENT OF ROSES! December 28th through January 3rd After participating in this fabulous Road Scholar program last December, I asked the program director if I could custom make that trip with some special activities for LIHS members. She was very willing to work with me. I hope you can join us on this extraordinary adventure! Among the activities will be a docent led visit to the Huntington Botanical Garden in San Marino, a day at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, an opportunity to work on a very special float, La Cañada Flintridge, a live performance at the Bandfest, a New Year’s Eve Party, seats at the Rose Bowl Parade, and the best part ~ a chance to get up close and personal with the floats, the day after the parade! We will be staying at the Hilton Woodland Hills Hotel in Los Angeles for 6 nights. The cost of the trip will be $1,100 which will include the hotel stay, most meals, all admissions and gratuities. Air transportation is not included. If you are interested in joining us for a memorable week, please send a deposit check for $100 made out to LIHS and send it to me, Barbara Levine, 22 Sugar Maple Drive, Roslyn, NY 11576. Any questions, please call me at 516.741.3386 or email barban22@optonline.net
