Travel
For the past 25 years, Joe has been running trips with the band to various areas in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Delaware. He has also hosted cruises to the Caribbean. Just 10 days after September 11, 2001, Joe hosted a trip with 40 people to Austria, Germany, Italy and Hungary. Despite all the fear and sadness of 9/11, the trip proved to be fantastic and left the travelers asking for more. Joe’s 2004 ‘Alpine Adventure’ tour to Austria, Germany, Lichtenstein and Switzerland was a sell out. In 2006 and 2007, Joe attended the Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany with a small group.
