Ring in Autumn with the Colors of New England

However, Colors of New England is scheduled to depart one day only (October 7) in 2010, so those interested are encouraged to quickly set reservations.

Music City Begins its Return to Normalcy
As the city of Nashville continues to return to normal we would like to remind our many customers that much of the city is already fully functional, offering a unique vacation opportunity this summer. Not only will visiting Music City provide the same quality insight into the culture and history of country music, but it will also provide a much needed boost to the area economy that will undoubtedly help see the city return to complete form in no time!
In particular, the Grand Ole Opry is once more back in full swing, if not stronger than ever. In an effort to bring attention to the situation in Nashville, many of the Opry’s top members are making last second decisions to perform in the near future with just some of the upcoming scheduled acts including Charlie Daniels (May 18), Brad Paisley and Vince Gill (May 25), and Josh Turner and Carrie Underwood (June 8).
Of course, the Grand Ole Opry is far from the only aspect of Nashville that has weathered the storm. In fact, the vast of the majority of the city has returned to a semblance of normalcy with only a few attractions, such as the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Opry Mills Mall, still significantly recovering from the damage.
Don’t let Mother Nature dictate your summer travel plans. Enjoy the one-of-a-kind culture of Music City while simultaneously lending a hand to one of our nation’s great cities!
