The Detroit Society for Genealogical Research is sponsoring its 25th Annual Research Trip to the Ft. Wayne / Allen County Public Library on Saturday, February 11, 2012. ACPL is the 2nd largest genealogical research library in the U.S. The cost of the charter bus trip is $35.00 per person ($40.00-non-members).
If you wish to purchase a boxed meal for the trip home, please add $8.75 and annotate on your reservation (original mailing was incorrect).
The National Trails bus will leave from the Lawrence Technological University parking lot in Southfield promptly at 6:30 a.m., so please arrive by 6:15 a.m. A second pick-up stop will be made about 7:15 a.m. at the Chelsea Park & Ride at Exit 159 off I-94 (note on the registration form if you will be making use of the alternalte pick up site).
The trip takes approximately 3 ½ hours each way. There is a rest stop each way. You are responsible for your own transportation to and from the designated parking area.
Please note: We will return to Southfield between 9:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.
There is neither a phone nor an inside waiting area at the University parking area. Breakfast is not provided. A letter or email with further details will be sent to all confirmed applicants.
We are limiting the registrations to the first 55 people to sign up – so don’t delay! We will maintain a waiting list in case of cancellations. Please duplicate the application form for additional persons. One check may be sent to cover all persons in your party, but separate Application Forms must be included.
Cancellations 21 days or more prior to the trip will receive a full refund. Cancellations inside 21 days will receive a 50% refund, unless the seat can be filled from our wait list – in which case, a full refund will be given. Those confirmed registrants who are not present when the bus leaves Southfield promptly at 6:30 a.m. or Chelsea at 7:15am are not guaranteed a refund.
