Today's Meeting

Martina shared her experience and knowledge of the Canadian Travel Company “Guess Where Trips”.  Owner and entrepreneur, Jessica Off came up with the idea for a scavenger-style one-day mystery road trip itinerary as a gift for her parents anniversary.  The company has grown to include one-day mystery trips in 4 provinces and several U.S. States.

These packages make excellent experience gifts for friends and family.
