from staff reports
March 24, 2011

Rod and Rita Luce will give a presentation on their recent trip to South America and Antarctica on March 30, 7 p.m. at QHS.

Quincy residents can take a virtual tour of South America anda the Antarctic during a presentation by Rod and Rita Luce on Wednesday, March 30 at 7 p.m. in the Quincy High School Performing Arts Center. Admission is free, but donations to the Quincy InvestED Fund and the QHS Senior Class are welcome.

The Luces will give a photography presentation on their trip last December, which took them to Argentina, the Falklands, South Georgia Islands, Antarctica, Chile and Peru.

In the Antarctic, they visited glacier-capped islands, saw seven species of penguins, visited research stations, rocky vistas and saw massive icebergs. In South America, they saw rain forests, the Andes and the Incan ruins of Machu Picchu.

Along with the photos, the Luces will give lively stories and descriptions of what they saw during their journey.

All are welcome to attend the presentation, which is suitable for all ages.
