Taking All the Worry Out of Travel the Salisbury Cruise Club by Michael Valliant

The first cruise that Kelly Shannahan went on was for his honeymoon in 1994. He and his wife, Tracy, went on a Caribbean cruise and absolutely loved it. Five years later, they were leading a group of 97 people from the Salisbury Jaycees on a seven-day excursion. And that was the beginning of the Salisbury Cruise Club, which has led more than 30 cruises over the course of 22 years.

The Shannahans go on each of the trips with their groups. Kelly’s love for travel goes back even further. “I have always had a love for travel. My parents kind of gave me that bug early on when they allowed me to plan our summer vacations ~ they let me plan the itinerary,” he said. “That gave me a love for planning trips.”
