Washington DC is a large urban area. There will be times when our group will be a part of large crowds in the museums, the subway and in restaurants.
Participating students must be of legal age, 18 years or older.
The Washington DC – US Holocaust Museum trip is a physically challenging, fast paced walking tour. There is no motorized transportation. Access to all of the museum and monument sights is done on foot.
Be prepared to walk at a pace of 1 mile in twenty minutes or less. Some of the sights will require that you are on your feet for an hour or more at a time with no stops to rest.
There may be exposure to the extremes of weather. We will be outdoors in the cold, heat, rain or sunshine from early morning until late at night. Each day is 12 – 15 hours of touring.
For your safety and the enjoyment of the entire group, we ask that you make us aware of any issues that you have that may impede your taking full advantage of this activity.
Transportation and lodging are provided by the college. Students are responsible for their subway ticket, meals and any incidental expenses that may be incurred. Typically students spend approximately $100 of their own money while on this trip.
Please discuss any concerns you may have with your personal physician BEFORE making a financial commitment.
