Free River Cruise For 8th Graders
A contest kicks off today in which the prize is a free river cruise for 8th graders. Why 8th graders? It’s an educational experience, that in addition, is intended to inspire kids to travel and learn more about different cultures. Even better, the winner gets to share the experience with a parent or guardian. Just one is covered, the other is on their own.
The week-long trip is sponsored by Florida based AAA. “AAA is excited to offer this contest for the second time in collaboration with our long-time partners AmaWaterways and Allianz,” said Deborah Haas, Vice President of Travel for AAA – The Auto Club Group. “The Discovery Crew contest and trip are inspired by our belief in the transformative power of travel and desire to expand children’s view of the world.”
In a nutshell, 600 kids from 14 different states will be selected for this great adventure. Don’t worry about things like passports. AAA will help facilitate all those little details in case you need assistance. Next, winners will be flown to Amsterdam, where they will board the AmaWaterways AmaLucia ship. In addition to the Netherlands, the trip includes a swing through Belgium.
