Regal Cruises and Travel will commemorate 25 years of business in January by holding a year-long celebration involving their suppliers, partners, clients and the communities.

Regal Cruises and Travel will run weekly and monthly newspaper ads, supported by a section on their Web site and indoor/outdoor signage.

Christine McFarlane, president of Regal Cruises and Travel, is working with their supplier partners to help make the event a success through any donations they can provide.

"Over the past 25 years, we have built strong relationships with our supplier partners. We want to bring the value of those relationships together with our clients and incorporate them into our special celebration year," Ms. McFarlane said.

Anticipated highlights will include monthly contests and promotions, a two-day event in September featuring exclusive offers and presentations, a grand prize trip giveaway in December, a year-long goal of donations to local food banks and $25,000 in cash and prizes.

Regal Cruises and Travel, a member of Ensemble Travel Group, serves a large area of the Southern Ontario region with offices in Stoney Creek, Burlington and Dunnville.
