We are a Travel Group, operating within First United Methodist Church - Denton, that travels locally, regionally, and internationally.
We hold five membership meetings each year, usually the second Monday of January, March, May, September and November. Meetings are held at FUMC-Denton in the Monroe Building and include a pot luck luncheon and a short meeting where future trips are announced and discussed. Membership dues are $2.00 per person annually. First year's dues are $5.00 per person which pays for a Tripper name badge. FUMC-Denton membership is not a requirement for membership in the Trippers Travel Group. However, membership in Trippers is required to travel with us. Trippers officers are non-paid volunteers, and elections are held annually.
