MarnaLou,

We were on the Navigator with just such a group, about the same size, in June to Bermuda. The group was a charitible group out of Dallas who cruised together every year and were sponsored by "D" Magazine (The equivalent to Los Angeles and New York Magazines). They had some events of their own and actually made some of the cruise events, like Kareoke, their own, but they were welcoming to the others on board. They were not exclusionary (mostly)- their friendliness and welcoming attitude were the key. There were a few who were not warm and fuzzy, but, that was the minority and was not exclusive to them - just people in general.
