One of our travel writers, Karen Dawkins from "Family Travels on a Budget" has a list of "Fun Things to Do When Stuck in a Hotel". As we collectively go through this pandemic and are spending time in "necessary togetherness", perhaps some of the ideas in the piece are workable ways to make the most of this time for you and yours! .

Our travel industry has always been a resilient one. With the family gathered you can also spend some time learning about the various MATPRA destinations and sharing lessons on Mid-Atlantic geography with your kids. Go through our member list and take a look at our various destinations, our histories and learn about the various natural wonders when this passes. www.matpra.org

For right now, stay safe and stay smart. We're all in this together!

We hope you take the necessary precautions to keep you and your loved ones safe. ...
