The Trips Committee has two trips for which there are short waiting lists which you will find below.

In addition, they wish to emphasize the procedures for trip sign-ups.

Short Wait List

 Wednesday, February 19, Asia Society, New York: “The Art of Impermanence: Japanese Works from the John C. Weber Collection and Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller 3rd Collection”: a docent tour of an exhibition of masterpieces of calligraphy, painting, sculpture, ceramics, lacquers, and textiles from two of America’s greatest Japanese art collections.

Trip Sign-Up Procedures

 * Sign-up sheets are usually posted on Fridays.

 * The first 12 persons to sign up are confirmed on the trip.  A trip can be fully booked the day it is announced or it can take weeks.  When the trip is full, the wait list starts.

 * Read the access section to see if the trip is suitable for you.

 * Signing up for a trip is a commitment.  Please check your calendar before signing up and keep the date free, no matter how far down the wait list you are.  People often have to cancel.

 * You are not permitted to sign up a friend.  Residents may only sign themselves up; exceptions are spouses and aides/companions. 

 * If anyone will be away from Kendal all weekend or in Clearwater or the hospital (but thinks they will be well before the trip), speak to a Trips Committee member; they are the only persons authorized to sign up the resident.
