GROUPS
The purpose of the Blacks Over 40 Cruise Host Program is for you to help spread the word to as many of our peers as possible. To reward you for your hard work we will give you either a completely FREE cruise or a discount for the members in your group.
This is a fun way for you and your friends to benefit from what you were going to do anyway, tell everyone that “this year, I’m cruising with Blacks Over 40.”
