In 1961, the United States figure skating team was one of the top programs in the world.

The year before at the 1960 Olympics, they took the gold in both the men's and women's competitions.

Then, on February 15, 1961, the team suffered a terrible catastrophe, one which took the better part of a decade for the U.S. program to recover from.

I've made quite a bit of progress. I've been talking to some suppliers, I have some preliminary

pricing, and we're coming closer to nailing down an itinerary.

Just a reminder, the tour is scheduled for next year in Rome.

The plan is to have a 10-day tour where we can explore the city at a level that few visitors

ever get to see.

We'll be doing excursions every day with top experts in history and art

will be able to get us access to places where few people ever get to go.

We'll also be doing online meetings before the trip starts to give you some

background on Rome and the things we'll be seeing while we're there. I'm going to try to keep the

group small and if there's a lot of people who are interested then I'll just make a second tour rather than pile everyone into one group.
