Newest Vacation Idea
Here's the novel way two families enjoyed a fabulous
By GEORGE J. JAFFE
WAYNE AND LEE Roush of Denver knew
they faced a "now or maybe never" situa
tion when it came to spending a long vacation
with their children, Mike, i5, and Susah, 12.
"After all, when your children become teen-agers, there
aren't many summers left to enjoy vacations together,"
Lee said.
"So when we learned my husband would have a rare,
free summer from teaching history at Abraham Lincoln
High School, we made up our minds to spend at least six
weeks with the children seeing another part of America.
"But we had a problem: a she-week vacation for four
seemed so costly!"
That was during the winter of 1962. At the same time, a
similar budget problem was facing Miss "Tommy" Gotham,
a schoolteacher who lived in Glendale, Calif., with her
widowed mother.
ela, as well as from every state in the Union.
The club's director and guiding light, Mrs. Betty Oat
roff, saya the reason for the almost instant success of the
group is simple:
"The essential ingredient of a satisfying vacation is
to have a change in one's mode of living," she explains.
"Many urban families relish farm vacations, while those
from tranquil communities welcome visits to a bustling
metropolis. Equally important is the fact that by exchang
ing homes, our members can enjoy a four- or six-week
vacation for less than the cost of a two-week stay at an
expensive resort hotel."
To bring its members together (yearly dues: $5.00; no
other charges), the club sends them an annual Vaca
tion Exchange Directory which lists homes available for
exchange (sometimes rental), plus periodic supplementary
lists as needed. That's how the Roushes and Gothams
learned of each other and began a correspondence which
ended in an exchange of homes last summer.
"While Miss Gotham knew she wanted to come to Denver
from the outset," explained Mrs. Roush, "our vacation
plans were less fixed. We wrote to other club members in
the West, too, but Mike and Susan were the ones who

The Roush family voted to swap
Denver for Glendale, California. Son Mike especially relished a trip to Catalina Island and swimming in the Pacific.
"I wondered how Mother and I could afford two months
in Colorado while I attended summer sessions at Denver
University," said Miss Gotham. "Living in a hotel or
motel for that length of time what with tipping, eating
out, and so forth would have been terribly expensive!"
Fortunately, the Gothams and the Roushes heard, almost
simultaneously, about a newly formed organization, the
Vacation Exchange Club. This bit of luck not only solved
their vacation-budget problem but led to the best summer
either family had ever spent
The Vacation Exchange Club was founded three years
ago by a group of teachers as a service to their colleagues
seeking inexpensive vacations. But the idea was so popu
lar that the club soon had many nonteachers in its ranks.
Today, its .500 enthusiastic members include families
from such faraway places as West Germany and Venezu-
finally decided us on seeing Southern California.
"My husband and I happily agreed. By making Glen
dale our destination, we would get a chance to use the
camping equipment we'd been buying for two years. If we
camped one week on the way down and one week back,
that would give us four weeks to see Southern California."
On July 19, the Roushes piled into their car and headed
southwestward. For a week they camped overnight at such
spots as Oak Creek Canyon, Glen Canyon Dam, and Bryce
Canyon National Park. They loved it but; they found the
four weeks at the Gothams' in Glendale an equally satis
fying experience.
"There are many advantages in an 'exchange home'
vacation," Lee Roush pointed out "For example, the Satur
day night we reached our destination at 10:30 p.m. and.

summer holiday without straining their budgets at all
essentials for the next morning. You've no idea how much
this helped us feel at home!
"Then there was the advantage of living in a private
home, where we could relax, dress as we wanted, come and
go as we pleased, and just be ourselves. We found it re
freshing not to have the phone constantly jangling or ap
pointments and meetings to pressure us. The lack of these
pressure promoted a family togetherness that sometimes
gets lost at home and a togetherness we could never
have enjoyed vacationing in a hotel.
"Another thing we liked was being able to go sight
seeing as the spirit moved us. If one of us didn't feel like
joining a day's excursion, he could stay around the house.
And despite our nonhectic schedule, we saw many of the
points of interest Miss Gotham had suggested."
Among the 28 tourist spots the Roushes visited in and
around Los Angeles were the Huntington Art Galley, the
Greek Theater (tickets supplied by a friendly neighbor),
Farmer's Market, Disneyland, and Forest Lawn Cemetery.
Mike aud Susan were so impressed by the stained-glass
reproduction of Leonardo Da Vinci's 'The Last Supper"
at Forest Lawn that they borrowed library books on the
Renaissance painter.
Miss Gotham felt the same way. "Mother and I liked
knowing a nice family was caring for our place, too. I
guess we had had some qualms at first we'd never left
our place to strangers before. We carefully put away our
china collection and antiques. But the instant we met the
Roushes, we realized how unnecessary that had been !"
During their five weeks in Denver, the Gothams also
did a giant share of Colorado sight-seeing. Of the 47
places the Roushes suggested they see, the Gothams got to
"at least 40."
"The Denver area thrilled us," says Miss Gotham, "as
did Colorado Springs, Rocky Mountain National Park, and
the Garden of the Gods. Shopping was excellent in Denver,
.too, which is something Mother and I love to do whenever
we visit strange cities."
The exchange of homes caused only one mix-up. "Both
families put the gas and electric accounts in their own
names while occupying each other's places," Miss Gotham
reported. "It was weeks before the companies sent the
right bill to the right party.
"I guess their computing machines aren't geared for
exchange vacations yet, though they probably would be
wise to consider it.
i r
Mrs. Gotham and daughter "Tom-
One of the sightseeing thrills for the Gothams toas Rocky Mountain National Park, my" chose Denver for its university.
But good-looking Mike Roush, who is on the swimming
team of Denver's North High School, especially liked the
boat ride to Catalina Island ("What a difference from
living in Colorado!") and swimming in the Pacific.
Susan Roush especially liked the Los Angeles radio
programs directed to teen-agers: "My transistor was on
the whole four weeks!" Another exciting touch for Susan
was finding a girl who had just moved to California from
Denver. They met the first Sunday the Roushes attended
services at the North Glendale Methodist Church. (Mike
and Susan are active members of the Youth Fellowship of
their Denver church.) .
Their father, Wayne, enjoyed the exchange vacation
with particular peace of mind: "It gave me a feeling of
well-being knowing the Gothams were back there keeping
an eye on our Denver homestead!"
"Exchanging homes is a grand idea! We plan to do it
again this summer. We've kept in touch with the Roushes
and might return to their place, though they want to ex
change with someone in the East this year. We might work
out a three-way exchange, since Mother and I would like
another summer in Denver."
As Mrs. Roush said, "Exchanging homes is such a
practical solution to financing family vacations, I wonder
why someone didn't think of it sooner. It didn't take us
long to realize that the comfort and convenience of our
arrangement were just as advantageous as the sizable
amount-of money we saved."
