Rotary Youth Exchange

Rotarian Gail MacLaren provided the club members an update on our new inbound exchange student arriving in Prince George in August.

Our new student, Maike Adams, is from Germany and will be turning 16 years of age this year.  Maike is a great young person and has already been communicating with our club electronically as she eagerly awaits her arrival date to Canada.  Maike speaks English from her studies in Germany, and will fit in nicely with Rotary and her new friends in Prince George.  

The first couple of Host Families have been arranged for Maike, but Gail indicates we still need some hosting.  Anyone that can assist should contact Gail directly.

Gail also mentioned that it is necessary for many of our Rotarians to get their Criminal Record Checks completed as these are necessary for all Rotarians having involvement with our Youth Exchange Program.  The CRC is necessary to be completed every four years.
