Cleveland Boat & Aquarium

Tuesday, June 24, 2025

We’re heading to Ohio’s North Coast, and boarding Lady Caroline, a four-deck, 120-foot-long ship to enjoy a Mexican-themed lunch buffet and a two-hour cruise of the waterways of Cleveland. Three of her decks are fully enclosed and climate controlled, and the sky deck features a covered bar and open views for panoramic sightseeing of Cleveland and her local waterways and The Flats. Includes onboard DJ entertainment.

Next, let’s peer at piranha, smile at a stingray, observe an octopus. Get up-close with native species and head deep under the sea at the Greater Cleveland Aquarium. There are fresh and saltwater habitats to see in the Aquarium that occupies the ground floor of historic West Bank Powerhouse that once generated electricity for streetcars, and a National Historic Landmark.

We’ll slow it down a little for the return and take some time to visit and relax at Lincoln Way Winery near Ashland/Wooster on the way home, for a guided wine tasting and a hearty pulled pork/chicken sandwich meal with mac & cheese, green beans, beverage and dessert.

Cost is $180 per person.

Motorcoach transportation, admissions, lunch (w/ coffee, tea or water) & tip included. Soft drinks/bar drinks not included. Winery samples and meal included.  Deadline to register is June 9, 2025. Leaving Yauger Rd. Service Center (MV) at 7:45am. Estimated return: 7-7:30pm. Some walking/standing required.

The Wilds

Thursday, October 16, 2025

Our motorcoach will take us to The Wilds, southeast of Zanesville, for a two-hour open-air safari tour of former strip-mine terrain now operating as The Wilds.  You'll climb onto a tour bus and set out into vast pastures, driving by giraffe, camels, bison, painted dogs, zebras, Przewalski's wild horses, rhinos, banteng, and many more! Tour guides help us spot the animals roaming the 10,000 acres and stop the bus to tell you stories about them. It's an amazing experience. (Reminder: dress for the weather.)  Hopefully, we will see some beautiful fall foliage on the trip. 

Following the tour, we’ll grab lunch at the Wilds, with a full baked potato bar, breadsticks, salad, fruit, cookies, and a drink (included), and visit the gift shop.

Next, we will travel back into Zanesville, and visit the studio of Alan Cottrill, most well-known for large commissions and statues. This prolific, revered sculptor and entrepreneur has created thousands of statues from George Washington to Ohio State’s Brutus Buckeye to Ohio native Thomas Edison, a statue now on display in the United States Capitol's National Statuary Hall.

Let’s take a break for a brownie or piece of cake, plus either pop, tea or lemonade at Bee’s Sweet Treats in the Downtown Exchange Food Hall in Zanesville.

A final stop in Utica with a visit to the generations-old Legend Hills Orchard for a cup of fresh apple cider (our treat) and a brief tour. Pick up some fresh fruit to take home.

Cost is $140 per person.

Motorcoach transportation, admissions, lunch, treat & tips included. Deadline to register is Sept. 26. Make check payable to CES Credit Union/MAP Trip. Leaving Yauger Rd. Service Center (MV) at 7:15am. Some walking/standing required, including steps on/off buses. Expect to travel on SE Ohio’s winding sideroads during this excursion.
