Rose Parade Float Viewing
Friday, January 2, 2026
A day after the iconic Rose Parade, travel by comfortable motor coach to Pasadena to view the extravagant floats. This revealing tour eliminates the pre-dawn departure from the desert, i.e. you will leave at a civil hour and you won’t have to fight Parade crowds. Marvel at the scores of floats up close that are displayed outside Pasadena High School and discover for yourself how every square inch of the floats’ exposed surface areas are covered with flowers and other natural materials, including a variety of fruits, seeds, barks, grasses and flowers. Experienced professionals and hard-working volunteers painstakingly applied the final touches to the floral floats. At the Rose Plaza float pavilion, marvel at the magic and detail these creators employed in producing their floral masterpieces that only a day before traveled down Colorado Blvd. Following the presentation, enjoy a no-host lunch near Old Pasadena.

Don Laughlin’s Riverside Resort
Come and enjoy this thrilling 3-day getaway to Laughlin, Nevada. We’ll be staying at Don Laughlin’s Riverside Resort, the very place where it all began. Although Don is no longer with us, his city continues to thrive and flourish in his desert oasis. During the journey, we’ll have snacks, raffles, and even a Bingo game on the bus. We will stop at Calico, a historic ghost town; we’ll have a no-host lunch. Entry fee and lunch are included in price. On the second day, we’ll embark on a side excursion to Oatman, Arizona, the home of the honeymoon hotel of Carole Lombard and Clark Gable, as well as the wild Donkeys. This day also includes an OPTIONAL dinner cruise aboard a boat on the Colorado River. You’ll have time to freshen up before heading out on the boat. The Riverside Resort offers its own buffet and restaurants, including the Prime Rib room, if you prefer not to go on the dinner cruise.

Phantom of the Opera at the Pantages
Saturday, July 11, 2026
$199
Please call our office at (760) 322-1247 to register for any of our day trips.
The Phantom is back to thrill audiences once again! Cameron Mackintosh presents a revitalized new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s legendary musical, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, which was rapturously received by London critics when it reopened in 2021. Featuring Maria Björnson’s brilliant original design and based on the celebrated direction of Harold Prince, with musical staging and choreography by Gillian Lynne, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA is widely considered one of the most beautiful and spectacular productions in history. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s romantic, haunting, and soaring score includes “The Music of the Night,” “All I Ask of You,” “Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again,” “Masquerade,” and the iconic title song. It tells the tale of a disfigured musical genius known only as ‘The Phantom’ who haunts the depths of the Paris Opera House. Mesmerized by the talents and beauty of a young soprano, Christine, The Phantom lures her as his protégé and falls fiercely in love with her. Unaware of Christine’s love for Raoul, The Phantom’s obsession sets the scene for a dramatic turn of events where jealousy, madness, and passions collide. We have secured seats in the first 3 rows of the Mezzanine and first 10 rows of the right and left orchestra seats. Show is preceded by a NO-HOST lunch at the LA Famous Farmers Market at Fairfax and Third.
