About this event
Have you had a great idea for a tour, but weren’t sure how to create the route and plan the tour? Are you interested in leading a tour group, but aren’t sure how to do it? Do you want to improve your skills in leading and sweeping tours and in planning tours? Then this all-new event is for you.
Porsche Silver Spring will host our first tour academy in their beautiful facility. The morning will start with a continental breakfast followed by several classes focused on leading and sweeping tours, using the radio and the Scenic app, and how to plan a great tour.
We will then break into smaller groups where participants will get a chance to lead and sweep a group of their own during a practice tour. We will end the academy at Restaurant 198 in Burtonsville, MD, where we will enjoy an optional lunch, finishing off the academy with a brief award ceremony.
