Now, as a Director of the Bank of Durango, Im pleased to nounce a new program that offers more exciting and affordable travel choices for local seniors. Most seniors seek the same pleasures that eveiyone seeks the opportunity to from travel share new places and experiences with some close friends. Through the Gently Passport Travel Club and Gentry Checking Accounts, this bank has found a way to offer local seniors unique, affordable travel options in conjunction with discounted checking accounts. By collaborating with Citizens Bank of Farmington, the Bank of Durango will avoid one of the main pitfalls of other chronic unreliatravel clubs bility. In addition, this collaboration will expand the social opportunities for local seniors by introducing them to seniors from across the Four Comers area. Residents of the Four Corners are active, diverse people. 970-247-13- and their tour options should reflect those qualities. Most of the Gentry Passport Travel Club tours are designed for active seniors who want to experience as much of both nature and culture as possible. Finally, a collaboration with Citizens Bank of Benefits of the Gentry Passport Travel Club Free Notary Service Free Travelers Checks Reliable, Unique Tours New Social Possibilities Free Wire Transfers No Membership Fee Farmington will make it much easier to meet minimum participant requirements, virtually eliminating tour cancellations. Although tours change from year to year, a glance at whats in store for 1998 immediately shows that the Gentry Passport Travel Club is not your standard seniors club. In July the club is planning a trip to Montanas Glacier National Park, with a short stop in Yellowstone to see Old Faithful. The Fall Color Tour through Southwest Colorado is always a popular trip, ' although many people may be saving themselves for one of tVi mnct pvritincr trios of the October Polar Bear 1998 Watch Tour to Churchill, Canada. Participants in this ten-da- y trip will visit the Polar Bear Capital of the World, on the west coast of Hudson Bay, where theyll witness at close range one of the largest migrations of polar bears in the world. But if you think that the Gentry Passport Travel Club only visits the naturally wild places, you better think again. In November the club will be visiting the wild inhabitants of Laughlin, Nevada, and in theyll tour the urban jungle of New York City. The main requirement of De-cem- ber joining the Gentry Passport Travel Club is that youre willing to have fun. In addition, you must be at least 50 and maintain a minimum balance of $3000 (among any combination of accounts) in the Bank of Durango. For more information on applicable accounts, Elaine Schoen or Pam Stewart at the Bank of Durango would be happy to answer your questions. So if witnessing a polar bear migration or touring New York City with a group of close friends sounds like fun to you, stop by the Bank of Durango in Bodo Park.
