New York City Trip, April 26 – May 1, 2026

LPSC is going to New York City on an adventure trip to tour landmarks and attend plays!  Please note that this outing is organized without a travel agent which gives you the ability to control your own reservations. It also cuts out any cost of a middle man or tour director. You are expected to make your own hotel reservations at the Millennium Broadway Hotel, Times Square., New York.

To be a part of the trip, you need to register for the trip using the form below and submit a $35 fee.  In addition, you will need to make your own travel and hotel reservations.  Our wonderful trip Coordinator, Rebecca Catterall is available to help as needed.  It’s recommended that you make hotel reservations as soon as possible because rates tend to go up and you can cancel the day before the trip.
