“We had a good response. Our bus wasn’t big enough; we got a bigger bus, so now we have a few more seats. We could probably take as many as seven more, but here’s the thing: if somebody’s interested, they really should call right away and let us know that they are interested and then we can save a spot with them, because I have to clear it with the hotel – there’s plenty of room on the bus, but we’ve used up all our rooms at the hotel,” said Hasnerl.
With each day drawing the trip ever closer, excitement is building for those who have signed up for WKVI’s Washington, D.C. Tour. Yesterday it was announced that selected veterans on the tour will present a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns.
Trip Coordinator Ed Hasnerl explained that a number of other events will take place as well, including a Gettysburg tour.
“We’re going to be attending a worship service at the National Cathedral on Sunday, June 17. Our Gettysburg tour is going to be presented by Alan Selge, a middle school teacher in the Knox school system. He is planning to be in costume and has videos to show. That’s going to be a very exciting event as well,” Hasnerl said.
There are still two seats available for the trip, which begins June 14.
There are a few seats available on the bus that will take you to Washington, D.C.
“We’re filling up,” said WKVI Tour Director, Ed Hasnerl. “We still have a seat or two available for anyone who wold like to go. We have some cancellations. It’s going to be an exciting time. We’ve got Alan Selge, from the Knox Middle School, who is a great historian. He is going to be sharing his DVDs and he’ll be in costume. That will be a great kick off.”
Ed talks about the sites you will visit on the trip.
“All the standard memorials – the Vietnam Wall, the WW II Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, and F.D.R. Memorial.”
