This tour to China will be an absolute blast! If you are reading these words right now, you have the bug! You’re interested! Alumni traveling with the Men’s Glee Club--performing with Club, engaging with Club...back on tour again, just like the good old days! What could be more fun?

Here are details on the Maize and Blue Plans for China travel that you’ve just read about in the Alumni Bulletin--also payment information, forms to complete, plus deadlines by which to respond. (And don’t miss the pictures showing the remarkable concert performance venues the Club and Classical Movements have set up.)

Here are the considerably detailed itineraries for both the Maize Plan (May 2-16) and Blue Plan (May 7-16) along with payment information, deadlines, and other important travel issues to consider.

Time for you to decide on joining the tour is tight--tight indeed. To be facing this circumstance, you have the most sincere apologies from the Club, your alumni Board, and Classical Movements. This tight timeframe, however, is mainly a function of the itineraries for Club having been finalized only in mid December, then the holidays that intervened and alumni variants then having to be created.

To join the China tour, you need to complete the following key tasks by end of business as of these important dates:

• By Friday, January 27
  • Return your completed Personal Information Form (separate form for each individual traveling) along with a $500/person non-refundable commitment fee 
  • If you select the Maize Plan and wish to travel on the Delta group air arrangement with UMMGC out of Detroit, your commitment and payment of this cost to Classical Movements
• By Friday, February 10: Payment of the balance due on your land travel cost for either the Maize or Blue Plans
• By Thursday, March 1: Notification to Classical Movements of your finalized independently-arranged air travel plans (if you are not traveling via the group arrangement under the Maize Plan)

Here are the forms required for travel to China:

Personal Inforamtion Form

Credit Card Authorization Form

Throughout the tour, the Men’s Glee Club will be performing in five different Chinese cities--Beijing, Xian, Chongqing, Wuhan, and Shanghai. Alumni are invited to perform with them in Wuhan and Shanghai.

The concert venues are spectacular and among the very best in all of China. Just look at these photos.
