Preliminary Info for Journey to Mexico in June
We plan to visit Tuxtla Gutierrez for six nights (June 11-17) with a 3-night pre-trip option in Mexico City (June 8-11). An email was sent on February 5 to all FFBR members with preliminary information about some costs, suggested sites we may visit, etc. Mexico City is the country’s capital with a population over 22 million located in the Valley of Mexico within the high central Mexican plateau at an altitude of 7,350 feet. Tuxtla Gutierrez, with a population over 600,000, is the capital of Chiapas, the southern-most state of Mexico and is a regional transportation hub.
We need an estimate of interest in order to establish there are enough participants and to plan more details, IT IS IMPERATIVE that you advise our journey coordinator, Morena Cazedessus, whether you are interested in the trip and interested or not in the Mexico City option. To do so, complete an ambassador application and send with a $100 deposit by February 20 as directed in the email or bring to our monthly luncheon on February 15, where more information will be available. The deposit less a $25 processing fee is refundable if cancelation is made 60 days in advance. Assuming enough participants, we will have periodic informational meetings to make further plans, find airfares, etc. Do not purchase airfare yet.
To access an application, sign in to your account at my.friendshipforce.org/en/users/sign_in and then go to the Help icon on the left. Click and then type in “Where can I find an ambassador and agreement application?” to access a link. Click on the question to see a choice of a copy to print and complete or a Google document that you can fill in online and then print. You must be registered on myfriendshipforce.org in order to travel on a journey.
