ARK ENCOUNTER & CREATION MUSEUM

DAY ONE, MONDAY , MAY 13, 2019 (D)

It’s an early departure this morning as we begin our travels to the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, KY and the Creation Museum in Florence, KY.  We will be visiting and overnighting at the Belterra Casino Resort.  Rest stops will be made along the way. 

​

Upon arrival we will visit the Creation Museum.  The Creation Museum shows why God’s infallible Word, rather than man’s faulty assumptions, is the place to begin if we want to make sense of our world.  This 75,000-square-foot facility allows us to experience earth history as God has revealed it in the Bible.  Nearly 150 exhibits feature fearsome animatronic dinosaurs, talking heroes of the faith and professional displays that honor God’s Word.  The museum also boasts a fun-filled, 200-seat special effects theater, a state-of-the-art planetarium, and lots more.  

​

From the Creation Museum we will travel to the Belterra Casino Resort where we will be guests for the next two nights.  You will each receive a Dinner voucher for a $21 dollar value that you can use tonight in the Stadium Grill.  Then enjoy some gaming time as you wish while you are here at the  casino.

DAY TWO,  TUESDAY, MAY 14, 2018 (B-L-D)

Enjoy a Full Buffet Breakfast (voucher included) at the hotel this morning before we depart for our day of activities.  We’ll  board our coach and travel to the Ark Encounter.  The Ark Encounter features a full-size Noah’s Ark, built according to the dimensions given in the Bible.  Spanning 510 Feet long, 85 feet wide, and 51 feet high, this modern engineering marvel amazes visitors young and the not so young.  This is a one-of-a-kind, historically themed attraction.  In an entertaining, educational, and immersive way, it presents a number of historical events centered on Noah’s Ark as recorded in the Bible.  It is the largest timber-frame structure in the world, and is family-oriented, historically authentic, and environmentally friendly. You will receive a meal voucher for lunch while here today.  The Ark Encounter is situated in beautiful Grant County in Williamstown, KY halfway between Cincinnati and Lexington and equips visitors to understand the reality of the events that are recorded in the book of Genesis — a global flood did occur, Noah and his family really did build a ship of the same size and dimensions as written in the bible, all of the animals brought by God to   The Ark Encounter takes advantage of the latest environmental technologies to be good stewards of Creation.  We will return to the hotel after our visit here and enjoy  dinner in the Stadium Grill  (voucher included) at the casino this evening. ($21 Value)

​

DAY THREE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 2019 (B-L)

Enjoy a full buffet breakfast  (voucher included) this morning at the hotel before we depart toward home. Enjoy some last minute gaming time or just relax in your room this morning. 

We will plan to leave Belterra and travel to Clarksville, Indiana and the Derby Dinner Playhouse.  It’s the ‘NEWSIES” you will be seeing and enjoying a buffet lunch as well.  The Newsies has been a smash-hit Broadway musical filled with one heart-pounding, high-energy dance number after another!  Adapted from the Disney film, this rousing tale is based on the true story about New York City’s newsboys striking against unfair working conditions.  In this musical, homeless New York City newsboy, Jack “Cowboy” Kelly befriends two newcomers to his trade, brothers David and Les Jacobs.  When the publisher Joseph Pulitzer sets new rules that make it harder for the young newspaper salesmen to make a buck, the boys go on strike. Bryan Denton, a journalist who’s sympathetic to their plight, gives them some tips in public relations, as the newsboys’ battle grips the city. 

Let’s board the motorcoach now and travel back to our original pickup.  A rest stop will be made along the way and we should arrive early evening.
