7 Program Goals Debriefing/Discussion with Participants 1. What did you learn from your experience in the Grand Cayman Islands? 2. Which part of your vacation did you enjoy the most? 3. Coming into this experience what how did you feel about your leisure, how do you feel now? 4. Do you feel aware of any changes to your outlook on leisure than before this trip? 5. If you could change something from this trip, what would it be?
8 Notes/Considerations All activities are accessible to ensure cooperation from the company you should call at least 72 hours in advance. Stingray City prefers you book at least 72 hours in advance. This will give them a heads up to make sure they are still fully accessible. Make sure you re on time for the flight nothing would be worse than missing out on all this fun because you missed a flight.
