Lauderdale Goodwill Ambassadors became a reality today when 629 European visitors, armed with honorary citizenship papers, set out to see Florida. In September, 1961, the Ambassadors, part of the Chamber of Commerce, took a trip to Europe on a massive promotional campaign approved by the White Houses' "Visit U.S.A." program and the Florida Development Commission. The Ambassadors, along with Gov. Farris Bryant and Mayor Edmund Burry, set up reception centers in the various countries they visited. In Frankfurt, they met with representatives of the Hamburg-Atlantic Lines Co owner of the SS Hanseatic, which docked at Port Everglades yesterday with the Europeans.

Eventually Hamburg-Atlantic got together with the Scan dinavian Airways System and planned the trip to Port Everglades. The Ambassadors were on hand yesterday when the Hanseatic docked. The visitors were given orange juice and suntan lotion with a 75-piece brass band from Attucks High School blared out "America, the Beautiful." They will stay in Florida from two days to a week, before visiting such cities as New York, New Orleans, San Francisco and Washington, then will fly back to Europe over the North Pole. 7 The group includes 472 from Germany, with others from Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Italy, Greece, Switzerland, France and Belgium.
