We want both traditional and new programs to be multi-dimensional and experiential, offered in a rewarding learning environment. Some of our newest programs take you trekking in the Swiss Alps or in Nepal. You can board a ship and explore the New England coast or venture to Antarctica. You can study America's literary legacy or pursue an independent course of study in the Czech Republic. I have met Elderhostelers who, at 80, are more vibrant than many 40 year olds.
Education matters because it keeps our minds sharp and our hearts open.
Our programs go and experience. We question and we learn. With best regards, Stephen H. Richards President Each month, Elderhostel President Stephen Richards will be commenting on issues and events that are important to the Elderhostel community. Please check in at the beginning of each month for a new letter.
