* Note regarding pricing. The cost of the round-trip, 56 seat motor coach, including driver gratuity, is $2,395.00. Pricing is based on 28 adults and 28 children. If fewer than 56 people reserve seats, or if there are more children than adults, the price per person will be increased to cover the full cost. If all seats are sold and more than the actual cost is collected, refunds will be made on a proportional basis. Unfortunately, the cost for this trip in April is considerably higher than the January March for Life bus. The difference is due to the travel season and a considerable discount given for the March for Life.
