Senior Year Trip planning

We want the trip each year to be memorable and in a good way

As a member of the PTA at my kids school, some of our responsibilities are fundraising and coordination class trips. When my kids were small and in elementary and even middle school, this was a much easier task. Now, they are in High School and the trips are to bigger places and, in most cases, several days long. We are charged with the task of located places that are fun, educational, safe, and reasonably priced. It is not easy to put all four things together and it takes almost half the year just to decide where we will be going. We ended up choosing a beach town that wasn’t too far from several historical plantations down south. This way we could use a couple of days doing tours, but, the kids could have downtime on the beach too. We needed to ensure that the accommodations were centrally located and they had adequate space and that it had all the amenities like HVAC. The Senior trip takes place around the end of June each year and the weather will be very summerlike during that time. Air conditioning will be a must at the end of a day of touring or at the beach. Before selecting the hotel each of us went online to read the reviews to make sure that it was a good match for our group. We want the trip each year to be memorable and in a good way. If we pick a place that is not comfortable, for whatever reason, it could ruin those final year memories for so many students. This year is even more important as one of my own kids are going too.

Mountain resort without heat

Our anniversary is in August, the hottest time of year. As I am not a fan of the summer heat, we always go away in the Fall to celebrate. Last year, in early October, we rented a suite at a mountain resort. I was really looking forward to this because we would be arriving during the time the leaves would be changing and I knew it would be beautiful. We drove about two hours to get to the resort and upon arrival I was thrilled. The grounds were beautiful and the entire property was covered in maple trees that were bursting with color. We checked in and headed to our suite. The room was nice and we had a gas fireplace that I thought was for decoration more than anything else. It turned out this was not the case. It was the only source of heat in the room and the warmth did not reach the bathroom or bedroom. If we were in the living area it was so hot that we felt like opening the windows, but, if you had to use the bathroom it was like using an outhouse. This made for a frustrating vacation for sure. When I asked the property manager about the heating situation they simply said that the resort was normally closed during really cold weather so they never installed a proper HVAC system. They did have wall mounted air conditioners for the summer months but felt that the fireplaces could take the chill off of the rooms for the short time they we open in the Fall.
