AOA Parade of Hearts Day Trip

Join us for a day-trip of exploring Kansas City to see how many 5' heart sculptures from local artists we can find during the Parade of Hearts. Ride in comfort as we explore the Riverfront, Downtown and Overland Park areas to name a few. We will even make a surprise stop for a treat! You have the opportunity to get off the bus to walk around and see the hearts. If you want to stay on the bus and just take in Kansas City, that is also an option! Our motor-coach departs the Olathe Family YMCA at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, June 4, and returns around 3:30 p.m. The tour includes round-trip motor-coach transportation, surprise treat and staff escort.
Lunch will be on our own so pack a lunch or you can grab something to go from a restaurant around the heart sites. This way we have more time to explore Kansas City. You can bring a cooler with snacks and drinks. NO glass containers are allowed on the bus!
Price per person is $43 if paid by May 29; $53 thereafter. Driver's gratuity ($2-$3 suggested) is not included.
