This trip is full.
THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG, DES MOINES COMMUNITY PLAYHOUSE | JUNE 2
A play within a play, this award-winning smash comedy is a farcical murder mystery: After benefitting from a large and sudden inheritance, the inept and accident-prone Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society embarks on producing an ambitious 1920s murder mystery. They are delighted that neither casting issues nor technical hitches currently stand in their way. However, hilarious disaster ensues and the cast starts to crack under the pressure. But can they get the production back on track before the final curtain falls? We’ll work up an appetite as we laugh during the play, then enjoy our hearty evening meal of traditional American dishes at the Machine Shed Restaurant before heading back home. Your fee of $135 for customers of Peoples Savings Bank includes the play and dinner, riding on our luxurious motor coach, and taxes and tips. Others are very welcome with a $5 convenience fee. Please make your payment by May 17.
MYSTERY TRIP | JUNE 18
We heard that you missed these, and so did we. Oh, the places we’ll go on this one! Fun and interesting stops for everyone—both men and women. $135 for Peoples Savings Bank customers and others are welcome with an added $5 convenience fee. Included are our luxury motor coach, delicious lunch, entrance fees, tax and tips. Bring your friends and neighbors. Please make your payment by June 5.
AROUND INDIANOLA IN THREE DAYS | JULY 31-AUGUST 2
We’re all “up in the air” over this one! It’s the National Balloon Classic with its gorgeous Nite Glow, a mesmerizing spectacle of hot air balloons illuminated from within and creating a breathtaking display against the night sky. Our group will be set up with chairs there. This Venture truly has something for everyone: We’ll soar at lunch at the world-renowned Des Moines Metro Opera’s headquarters, be guided through a unique and sweet discovery of honey and beekeeping, “fly” through Indianola downtown, visit the National Balloon Museum with the history of flight and the earliest days of ballooning, enjoy locally brewed beverage flights, the World Food Prize Hall, Better Homes & Gardens Test Gardens, tours of Wilson’s Orchard and Rose Farms, and visit a raspberry farm. We’ll have a step-on guide for the bridges of Madison County, lunch at a winery, have a private tour of the Iowa Quilt Museum led by the museum’s director, and of course visit the only museum in the world dedicated to legendary John Wayne. All of this and two nights at our hotel, two breakfasts, three delicious and unique lunches, luxury motor coach, entry fees, taxes and tips are included. Peoples Savings Bank customers’ fee is $750 per person double or $900 if a single room. Others are very welcome with an additional $50 convenience fee. $200 is due when you sign up and the remainder is due by June 30.
IS THERE LIFE AFTER FIFTY? DUBUQUE, IA | AUGUST 24
We’ll enjoy a catered box lunch as we make our way to an afternoon matinee of this very funny show at the Bell Tower Theater in Dubuque. Let’s see what happens when three wives trick their unsuspecting husbands into spending their yearly vacation at a “health resort.” Will pizza, beer and The Godfather win out over salad, sparkling water and jazzercise? This battle of the sexes divides the cabin in half as they answer the question, is there really life after fifty? We’ll celebrate with a delicious two-meat plated dinner and dessert at Timmerman’s Supper Club after learning the answer to this important question. All of this—chartered luxury bus, lunch, play, dinner, taxes and tips for $145 if you are a Peoples Savings Bank customer. Others are very welcome with a $5 surcharge supplement. Please make your payment to the bank no later than August 10.
