Rai at the Olympics
Posted by Kenneth Pendergast
Rotarian and Youth Exchange Director Gail MacLaren read an email report from our Exchange Student Raissa Olmos Morandi about her current adventures as one of the volunteers at the 2010 Olympics.
Rai is staying with Rotarian Hosts in Squamish, while working as a volunteer picking up trash around the venues at Whistler.
Rai has been getting in some great time, watching some of the sports, including being a one person "Cheer Leader" for her Brazilian competitors, as she is likely the only person their from Brazil except for the team.
Rai has even managed to get an interview on TV and seen by her friends and family at the Olympic Games.
Such is the life of a Rotary Exchange Student. Way to go Rai.
