Join Cedarville University on a regional bus trip as we explore some of the most important historic sites and tourist attractions across the country. This trip is exclusively for Yellow Jackets and friends who are 55 and older. Guided by Good Comma Classroom’s American heritage experts and all-pro storytellers (graduates of Cedarville University and Hillsdale College), you’ll encounter numerous sites, museums, memorials, and establishments. Much more than a sightseeing venture, this trip is designed to help you connect your story to our nation’s narrative from a biblical perspective. Join our staff- and alumni-led tours and connect with old and new friends through uplifting fellowship. Experience personal growth in spiritual and historical knowledge while exploring the biblical underpinnings of our nation.
