Fall
TIFTON
– The Office of Educational Outreach at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College will
feature a variety of trips for the fall and holiday seasons. All the trips are available to the general
public.
The
travel season at ABAC kicks off with an Atlanta Braves game on Sept. 12 when the
Braves will face the St. Louis Cardinals in Atlanta. ABAC alumnus Kyle Farnsworth is now a pitcher
for the Braves. The one-day trip
features round trip motor coach transportation to and from Atlanta, lunch, and
tickets to the game. The cost of this trip is $99 per person.
On
Oct. 23, experience one of Rodgers’ and Hammerstein’s most beloved musicals, “The
King and I”, at the Alhambra Theater in Jacksonville, Fla. The Saturday matinee
includes lunch and the show, as well as transportation via motor coach to and
from the venue. There is a cost of $99 for this trip.
The
holidays get into full swing with the Candlelight Christmas at the Biltmore
Estate on Dec. 1 – 2. Travelers will depart for the palatial mansion on Dec. 1 and
travel to Asheville, NC, where they will be able to do some shopping and dine
at the Deerpark Inn for an early holiday feast before taking part in the
candlelight tour of the Biltmore Mansion. The following day, visitors will be
re-admitted back into the Biltmore Estate that features the stable gift shops
and green house before heading home in the afternoon. The trip includes motor
coach transportation, one night’s lodging, ticket for the Biltmore Estate, and
one dinner and one breakfast. The cost for this trip is $299 per person (based
on double occupancy).
To
get you into the Christmas spirit, two trips to see the Radio City Music Hall
Rockettes will be offered Dec. 10 and 11 in Jacksonville, Fla. The show will feature
the “Nutcracker” ballet, “The March of the Toy Soldiers” and a live nativity
scene. The travel package will provide transportation via motor coach to and
