Welcome to our Trips and Travel page.
You DO NOT need to travel alone. If you are interested in traveling with a great group of people, join in the fun with HIP Travel. Each trip is an adventure! Our travel program is open to anyone over the age of 18, however, there are member and non-member fees . Members of the Hartland Senior Center receive discounts on travel fees. Both day and night trips are available. All bus trips are driven by professional drivers. All of our trips will be picked up and dropped off at the west end of Hartland's Target parking lot.
Happy Retirement Carol Ringle!
After 25 years of service to the Hartland Senior Activity Center, Carol Ringle has retired! We appreciate her commitment to helping our members and the Hartland Community over the years. When asked what her favorite accomplishment of the past 25 years was, she replied "I'm most proud of building the travel program at the senior center! I really enjoyed the friendships that were built among the regular travelers, and I enjoyed finding cultural trips (Plays, Concerts, Historical Tours) for all to enjoy!" Thanks to all who made it out to her Retirement Celebration! |

* Please do not ask our staff to put your name on our trip list without payment. If you are interested in a trip we will make a note of your interest but that does not guarantee you a spot on the trip. We use those lists to call people to remind them of their interest if the trip is filling up.
In case of weather related emergencies please remember that if the Hartland Consolidated Schools are closed the Hartland Senior Center is also closed. (If we have scheduled a trip for that day you will be contacted by our staff regarding the trip status.)
