What is Elderhostel/Road Scholar?
In a nutshell, Elderhostel (Road Scholar) is older folks going to school without homework, without tests or quizzes, with long recesses, and with really good food service. Come find out for yourself! Go to RoadScholar.org and see the 8000+ programs that are available.
====================
====================
Road Scholar...
Road Scholar is the new name for Elderhostel, but the definition has been in the making since the first Elderhostel programs back in 1975. “Road” connotes a journey and real-world experience, and “Scholar” reflects a deep appreciation for learning. Together the words capture the heart of our program experience: learning from expert instructors, enhanced by direct discovery of an idea, issue, subject or place.
