Welcome to the new 2021 Pacific Northwest Travel Book! 2020 was a difficult year for everyone but I am looking forward to putting it all behind us and starting anew. I hope you will like the new catalog format. I wanted something that would be useful and that you could put on your wall like a calendar. Also you will notice a “check box” located at the bottom of each trip, this will let you know at a glance that you are signed up for that particular adventure. I look forward to seeing and traveling with each and everyone of you this year. I have missed you all so very much! Lori Schatz – Your HC Trips & Tour Coordinator 2
