This trip is open to any adult, 18 years old and older.  This trip is Minimal walking.

Start with a delicious buffet luncheon with all foods prepared on the premises.

Following lunch enjoy the hilarious Matinee performance of A Christmas Cactus!

Christmas Eve is tough for private investigator Cactus O’Riley, a white hot redhead with the holiday blues. She doesn’t need the added aggravation of two fugitives who burst into her office looking for justice and a dead detective named Jake Marley.  Christmas turns into a dickens of a holiday for Cactus as she solves mysteries, delivers small miracles and takes a second chance on love and sleuthing.  Comedy, mystery, and romance converge in this charming contemporary Christmas tale where goodwill and justice triumph!

Following the Matinee, return to your seat in the dining room for a holiday themed Cabaret Show!

COST: $75 per person includes roundtrip motorcoach, fabulous buffet lunch, matinee performance of “A Christmas Cactus”, and cabaret show.  Driver tip is not included.

The Rose City Senior Center will be getting custom Cornhole boards! 

Cornhole (Bean Bag Toss) is a game in which players take turns throwing bean bags at a raised platform (board) with a hole in the far end.  A bag in the hole scores 3 points, while one on the board scores 1 point.  Cornhole can be played as singles, doubles or teams.  Play continues until a team or player reaches or exceeds the score of 21.

If you are interested in playing Cornhole, please leave your name and telephone number at reception. Game day(s) and time(s) TBD.  You will be contacted when we receive the Cornhole boards.
