What is International Towne?

International Towne teaches children about the role of free enterprise in the global economy through an array of International economic concepts including interdependence, world trade, foreign currency exchange, and importing/exporting.

The Towne is comprised of four regions: AmeriLat, EuRussia, MidAfri, and PacAsia, representing 16 countries from these areas of the world. Children transform into country Presidents, Finance Ministers, Customs Agents, Global Peacekeepers, Artisans, Bankers, DJs, Freight Carriers, Museum Guides, Carpenters, News Reporters and more.

While at Towne, our “world citizens” provide goods and services to other countries and “tourists,” and take turns being tourists themselves, using passports to “travel” between the countries, participating in cultural activities, and purchasing foods and souvenirs using currency they have earned for performing their jobs.

The targeted age group is between 12-14, but kids between the ages of 7-14 participated last year with wonderful success and fun. No matter what age, the children enjoy participating in all of the jobs and learning at their own level.

I would like to invite you and your family on a wonderfully educational, fun trip. We are coordinating a homeschool cruise! I have homeschooled my four boys for over 8 years, and am a veteran cruiser. My mother-in-law, who has been on dozens of cruises over the past 15 years, is working with me to bring you a wonderful vacation that will inspire and invigorate your homeschooling journey. This will be a welcoming, all-inclusive group. Dates: November 1-8, 2009 Ship: Holland America Westerdam http://www.hollandamerica.com/cruise-vacation-onboard/Westerdam Itinerary: Leave from Ft. Lauderdale, At Sea, Grand Turk (Turks & Caicos), San Juan, Puerto Rico, St. Maarten, At Sea, Half Moon Cay, Bahamas, Return Ft. Lauderdale What makes THIS homeschool cruise unique is that we will be having many activities set up for the homeschool families that will be traveling together. Possible activities will include scavenger hunts, Game shows (ex. Jeopardy, Family Feud, etc.), Scrabble tournaments, sing-alongs, talent show/skits, lots of get-to-know-you activities and opportunities for both the kids and the parents to interact. On our two days at sea, we will have activities lined up all day to help make this a unique experience in travel for your homeschool family. Special pricing will remain in effect for the 1st & 2nd person rates until April 15. The 3rd & 4th person rates are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed until booked, but should be available through that date as well. After that date, Holland America reserves the right to raise the rates, depending upon availability and how the ship is booking. If the prices go lower at any point, Holland America will give us the least expensive rate. Prices listed include all taxes, port charges and government charges. There is no fuel charge currently, but Holland American reserves the right to impose a fuel surcharge if oil prices go over $70/barrel. There is also an $11/person/day ($77/person) service charge added for all tips, which is added to the bill at the end of the cruise. Inside cabin – Lower deck
1st & 2nd persons -- $693/person
3rd & 4th persons -- $173/person

Inside cabin – Upper deck 1st & 2nd persons --$713/person 3rd & 4th persons -- $173/person

Outside cabin with obstructed view
1st & 2nd persons -- $773/person
3rd & 4th persons -- $173/person

3rd & 4th persons -- $173/person

Balcony 1st & 2nd persons -- $973/person 3rd & 4th persons -- $173/person

A deposit of $175 is necessary for each occupant in the room. The full deposit will be returned if the room is cancelled three months before the cruise. Each cabin will also receive a $50 onboard credit to use as you wish. Please forward this information to any homeschool group or individual that may be interested in joining this unique adventure. Please contact Loni Kaplan at adamfolk@hotmail.com with any questions, as well as with your reservation requests. We look forward to sailing with you and getting to know your family as we share this exciting piece of our homeschooling journey! Sincerely, Loni Kaplan & Barbara Kaplan
