              A MESSAGE FROM
              THE DIRECTOR
              Summer is here, and we’ve cooked up a variety of activities and
              adventures for our Platinum Adventures friends! We hope for plenty
              of sunshine to brighten up our day trips and local events. Join us for an
              educational seminar to soak up knowledge on financial topics and more.
              For those who are ready to uncover new places, we’re offering trips to
              a range of destinations across the country. Grab your date book and a
              friend, and let’s explore!

              Since your safety is our utmost concern, we will be practicing social
              distancing and other protective measures at events. Face coverings will
              be used when required and event attendees will need to sign a waiver.
              Also, please know all our extended trips include trip insurance, which can
              give you peace of mind in uncertain times.

              At the time of print, the extended trips, outings, and presentations in
              this newsletter are all scheduled to occur as planned. However, due to
              COVID-19 precautions, these events may need to be rescheduled or
              canceled. Please contact me with any questions you may have.

              I look forward to seeing you soon!

    The Tempel Lipizzans began in 1958 when the late Tempel

    what became the largest privately owned herd in the world.
    Lipizzan horses have been protected by empires and sought
    by royalty. They have performed at many prestigious events,
    including the Presidential Inaugurations. These magnificent
    horses are known for their elegant gait, superior intelligence
    and enduring strength. Join us at the indoor open air arena
    for a rare opportunity to see Lipizzan horses learning their
