The 2007 tour took the Ambassadors to Chicago, IL; Portland, OR; Denver, CO; Houston, TX; and New Orleans, LA from April 12–18. In the aftermath of the shooting at Virginia Tech, Ambassador Lee returned to Washington one day earlier than scheduled, rather than proceeding to New Orleans. Ambassador Vershbow also participated in a stand-alone program in Atlanta, GA.
