Events and Activities : Tour to France planned; local meeting set for Oct. 7

Pastor Mark and LuAnn Urlaub invite anyone interested in touring in France to an informational meeting Sunday, October 7 at Bethlehem Lutheran Church (1206 C Avenue in Vinton) at 6:30 p.m. Janet Tollund of Group Travel Directors and guide for the tour will show pictures, talk about the trip and answer questions. The custom designed tour will be September 4-14, 2013, and will include the Normandy D-Day landing beaches, Paris, and much more. Space is limited and there is already good interest in this tour.

The Urlaubs have hosted several European tours and enjoy introducing people to that kind of travel. They also have veteran travelers who go with them because they enjoy the group and the ease of guided touring. Email m_urlaub@msn.com for a brochure or more information.
