If you love flowers, festivals, and good food, then this is the tour for you! This festival
has “blossomed” over the years, and in 2016 was named by Readers Digest as the
“Best Small-Town Festival in America.” You don’t want to miss this great trip!
TUESDAY, MAY 4, 2021 – Experience one of the most beautiful flower festivals in America, as we travel to
Holland, Michigan, for a memorable week of tulips and other flowers, parades, sightseeing, shopping and
more! Our luxury motorcoach will depart from the Community Bank parking lot in Forest at 6:15 a.m.,
Community Bank in Brandon at 7:15 a.m., then pick up at the St. Dominic’s Chapel parking lot at 7:45 a.m.
Our destination for today, is Mt. Vernon, Illinois. We will have rest stops en route and break for lunch (on your

night.

Michigan! We will have a lunch break (on your own) en route to Holland. We will arrive by early afternoon and
start our tour off on a high note, as we enjoy the Dutch Marktplaats – the beginning of the Dutch Heritage
Festival Experience! You will see handmade quilts, wall hangings and other local artisan works, plus Klompen
dance performances and wooden shoes for sale to give us the “Dutch Touch!” After our time here, we will
have some free time in downtown Holland to enjoy the atmosphere and quaint shops during this wonderful
event. After our sightseeing and shopping time, we will have worked up an appetite, so we will be guests at
the New Odyssey Dinner Show! We will enjoy a delicious dinner together and enjoy seeing over 30 different
musical instruments played, performing arrangements of almost every genre of music! This will be a great
ending to our first day in Holland! After our dinner show, we will transfer to our hotel to check-in for the next

Holland’s only perennial tulip garden/farm! We will see over five million tulips we can walk through and enjoy!
Also, see 50,000 daffodils, 10,000 hyacinths and 20,000 crocuses in a parade of color! We will also enjoy
seeing DeZwaan, the only 200-year-old authentic Dutch Windmill operating in the United States, which still
grinds locally grown wheat into flour. At Nelis’ Dutch Village, we will see costumed guides, an Amsterdam
street organ, a hand painted Dutch Carousel and a full replica of a Dutch Inn and gift shops!
We will have a lunch break (on your own) at one of the many restaurants in Dutch Village, then we will make
our way to the downtown area, to enjoy Volksparade (the people’s parade), one of the most spectacular
parades in Michigan! We will see marching bands, amazing floats and entertaining specialty entries as they
wind their way down the freshly scrubbed streets. Our dog lovers will enjoy the “tail end” of the parade, as the
“Dutch Dogs” will bring the parade to a close. After our parade time, we will enjoy more time exploring the
Dutch settlement, where we will step back in time and enjoy the Dutch architecture, canals and beautiful
gardens – another memorable treat on our tour!
After an unforgettable day, we will enjoy another exciting dinner show, the Four Pianos Dinner Show! Walt
Matzke’s Four Pianos features four master pianists on four grand pianos, performing brilliant arrangements of
classical, Broadway and pop favorites! Our group will enjoy a delicious dinner and this talented show
(included) this evening. After our show, we will load up and transfer back to our hotel for the evening. (B, D)

1842 by Edward Sorin, a priest of the congregation of Holy Cross, a French Missionary order. Notre Dame is
one of the great Catholic Universities of America – achieving excellence in academics and athletics. After our
campus tour, we will enjoy a delightful lunch (included) at Tippecanoe Place, a beautiful mansion that was
