We had a geat time. The Tour Guide was excellent. The first two restaurants were very good. The Italian Restaurant was not that good. The bus driver was pleasant and a very good driver. The hotel was OK as was the breakfast. No complaints.

Hello Dolores, Thank you for your kind words. We understand the weather was not as wonderful as it could have been so we are glad to see you set that aside and had a good time. We will certainly share your comments with the driver, as well

We had a good time. We were able to visit and talk with many vendors. Got a lot of info and ideas for future trips.
By Linda I for Group Leader / Influencer Appreciation Day & Marketplace on Sep 22, 2024
This is the second Appreciation/Marketplace I have had the pleasure of attending. The vendors were all very professional and full of information. Karen and Vivian did a wonderful job in explaining how they are helping us network to get buses filled to make a trip a go. I took 2 of our Community Activity Directors with me, so that they could get information and hopefully get our Fawn Lakes Community traveling more. I would LOVE to take a trip to SUGAR CREEK, OHIO during their Swiss/Germany Festival, usually the end of September sometime. I have enjoyed every trip I have taken with Stout and plan on many more.
