Escapees March/April 2016

Destination Vermont! The nearby town of Burlington lies on the shore of Lake Champlain and is the largest city in Vermont. It boasts an ambiance that is equally charming and chic. While both picturesque and quaint, it sparkles with energy and class and offers a wide range of interesting things to explore. From dinner boat cruises to biking or kayaking the blue- green lake, to partaking of the many eateries, wineries, breweries and cheese-makers, there’s no shortage of diver- sions to enjoy. The Champlain Valley Exposition Center is well-suited for Esca- pade activities with ample seating for assemblies, comfortable seminar rooms and easy access to exhibit halls and events and for attendees. With refreshing summer temperatures the norm, it’s the ideal location for warm weather activities. Electric and water hookup sites are available at the Expo Center, along with limited boondocking options.
