On Aug. 20, travelers will get the opportunity to tour the 30,000-square-foot home of Edsel and Eleanor Ford in Grosse Pointe.

Travelers will enjoy the Grosse Pointe coastal area and see the historical St. Paul Cathedral, which dates back to 1790.

The motorcoach will leave the Durand Union Station at 8 a.m. and return by 5 p.m. The cost of the trip is $79 and payment is due by Aug. 1.
