The following just a sampling of ideas for a day trips with your group. Each trip is first priced for the bus, not per person.
Prices are for transportation only unless it is specifically indicated that tickets or meals are included. If your trip is not on the list, it does not mean that we will not take you there.
A day trip is defined as 200 miles plus 9 driver hours. This is somewhat flexible particulary regarding events in Cleveland or Cincinnati.
A three trip package is a special deal for your group, school, church, etc. that saves you money. Sign up for three trips in a 12 month period and receive a discounted rate. Trips designed by you that are not listed below qualify for 3-trip package rates as long as they meet the day trip definition. Talk to Bob for details.

(available June, July, August, maybe September)
SAILIING CHARTER INCLUDED IN PRICE
Six persons from your group will do a three hour sailing charter (approximately 9:30-12:30) while “BobandhisBus”
takes the rest of you to
East Harbor Beach
or some of the following:

b) Cheese Haven
c) Johnson Island Civil War cemetery - if available
d) School House Gift Shop and neighboring shops
At 12:30 six more will do sailing while the rest do “the other stuff!”
Possibly a stop for dinner on way home.
Sailing is recommended for ages 4 or 5 to 99. By the way, you can just relax but the skipper will allow you to help with the sailing if you wish.
IMPORTANT: Only 12 people can participate in sailing but you can bring more people along who might just want to do the beach and other events. Bringing other people along would reduce the price quoted above for “sailors”. These details can be worked out when you call Bob Bernow at
