This is an ideal opportunity to learn more about becoming an exchange student for a summer or school year or hosting an inbound student. What will happen at the meeting?
- Rotary Youth Exchange students, including our very own Ale Pena Gonzalez, will share about why they chose Rotary Youth Exchange and what they have enjoyed so far.
- A panel of host parents, including our very own Craig Blixrud, will talk about benefits they received from being a host family and questions they had going into the experience for the first time.
- The North Star Youth Exchange Coordinator, Melanie DeLuca, will talk about both the year-round and summer outbound programs and any inbound questions people might have.
- Attendees can sample food from Slovenia, Thailand and Paraguay which are the countries where this year's Chanhassen, Chaska, and Eden Prairie RYE students come from.
