Emily Urich  Emily comes with a wealth of travel experience behind her.  When her
    dad worked for National Geographic Emily would go along.  She's been everywhere from  
    Australia to Northern Africa.  Want to tour the pyramid's in Egypt then you want Emily as
    your guide.  She has traveled all over Europe and the Caribbean.  You will love traveling
    with her as your tour staff.  

    Sheila Donnelly  As a mother of a severely handicapped son Sheila is well versed
    in the needs of people with developmental disabilities.  She has the understanding that
    only a parent who has dealt with this situation can have.  Along with being a registered
    dietitian and scout leader Sheila is also one heck of a nice person.   

    Cameron Glenar  Cameron's first job was production line supervisor at  New
    Horizons in the San Fernando Valley working with 20 consumers.   That's 20 all at the
    same time!  His whole line thought he was the greatest.   He has traveled all over the
    United States, Canada,  England, Scotland, France and the Caribbean.  Cameron has
    escorted our members to the Eastern Caribbean aboard both the Carnival Triumph and
    the Carnival Victory out of Miami.   He just returned from the Mexican Riviera on the new
    Carnival Splendor out of Long Beach.  

    Neil Menzies  Neil started working with the developmentally disabled back in
    1975.   He was responsible for the transportation department at New Horizons in the
    San Fernando Valley and one of his duties was organizing tours to places and events
    all over Los Angeles County.   In 1979 several consumers who were good friends
    asked him to put together a tour just for them.  They ended up over the years going as
    a group to San Diego, Las Vegas and Orlando.  Neil has extensive experience working
    with clients who have multiple disabilities (Special Needs) and people who have a
    diagnosis of autism.   He took our group on their first trip to the Caribbean on the
    Carnival Triumph back in April 2005.

    Greg Urich  Greg's first involvement with our members was several years ago when
    Neil asked him to help out during the annual bazaar at New Horizons in the San
    Fernando Valley.  He volunteered every year after that.  Greg has been a tour escort on
    many of our excursions in  LA and San Diego during 2005 including the very popular
    Miramar Air Show.  He is one popular tour escort with our members.  You can see him
    on the Miramar Air Show video fooling around in the Russian sub.   Greg spent a
    summer traveling around Europe spending time in Greece, England and Scotland.  He  
    was one of our tour escorts on the Carnival Pride to the Mexican Riviera.  During
    December Greg helped us escort another group down to the Caribbean on the Carnival
    Victory and in April 2010 he staffed another Eastern Caribbean on the Carnival Liberty.  
    Greg was on board the Carnival Splendor in March 2011!  Neil and Greg just returned
    from a great long weekend in San Diego with a group of our members visiting the zoo,
    Sea World and the aircraft carrier Midway. Awesome weekend!

     Murray and scheduled to be shown on the A and E Network.  More about that later!
