Sounds like a wonderful idea to me!  I also happen to work as a travel
agent and would be more than happy to see about arranging for a "deal" ...
Usually, with large groups, for every 10 paying passengers you can get
someone along for free... ie Guest of Honors, organizers, etc.  If there
is enough interest I will check out what's available (though it is a bit
early for '95 right now), cost, etc.

Geoff.
