 Specialists
in Choir performance tours |
|
Incorporated in 1980, Going Places of
Pleasantville specializes in performing arts tours for amateur
groups, church choirs, community choruses, Handbell choirs. Most of
our groups are from the United States travelling overseas, to the
UK, the Continent and beyond. We also welcome incoming groups to
perform here in the US.
With 30 years experience in the travel
industry, Christine Pelham likes to escort all the tours herself.
Her background includes work with the airlines, at airports, in
reservations and at city ticket offices,
even as flight attendant on the New York Helicopter service.
She has spent twenty years
in retail travel, specializing in groups.
When not organizing or escorting musical
groups, Christine creates painting and art tours as well as soft
adventures like rafting down the Grand Canyon, canoeing in Costa
Rica, or bicycling in British Columbia.
Christine sings (alto) in two choirs herself. Weekly with the Emanuel
Lutheran Senior Choir and also with MasterSingers of Westchester
giving 2 major concerts each year.
Arriving from England on a one way ticket as part of the "brain
drain" of the 60s, Christine has returned frequently for
language refresher courses. She is a frequent walker, "adventure
pussycat",
and scribbler of travel introspection.
The testimonials from the
directors of choirs and other musical groups who have travelled with
Going Places demonstrate Christine's meticulous attention to detail
and personal involvement in setting up the most successful,
rewarding and memorable tours for many choirs and other groups.
