Your memorable day starts with time on your own to shop and dine at Chelsea Market in Manhattan. Built in the former National Biscuit Company factory complex, Chelsea Market fills two entire city blocks. This enclosed building is now home to an urban food court, restaurants and food stores. Chelsea Market also houses television production companies including The Food Network.
Following lunch, you will be dropped off at the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. Build on the former World Trade Center site, the Memorial & Museum is a tribute to those who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. The Memorial’s twin reflecting pools, each nearly one acre in size, sit within the footprints of where the Twin Towers once stood and have the names of those who died inscribed into bronze panels edging the pools.
Opened in 2014, the Museum tells the story of 9/11 through multimedia displays, archives, narratives and a collection of monumental and authentic artifacts. The museum presents the intimate stories of loss, compassion, reckoning and recovery in the telling of the story of the 9/11 attacks and aftermath.
COST: $66 per person includes admission to 9/11 Memorial & Museum and transportation.
Driver tip is not included. Lunch is on your own at Chelsea Market.
There will be one rest stop on the way to New York and one on the return trip home.

The Christmas Party on the 25th of December at the Senior Center was a success again this year!
While snow did stop a few folks from being able to make the event, those who were able to make it to the Senior Center enjoyed great food, fun and a visit from Santa. Thanks to everyone who donated food, money and time for this special day. A special thank you to the City of Norwich Maintenance Department employees who plowed and shoveled to help make the event safe. Without all of their help this year, the party might not have been able to happened.
It was great to see Betty, as she continues to be involved after running the party for so many years. The new and old volunteers who braved the snow to helped were exceptional and we could not have done it without you. A special THANK YOU to everyone who volunteered and helped out!
Happy and Healthy New Year to all. See you all again next year!
