Come ready to share your international travels (or dreams) during the meeting. Please wear or bring a memento of an international trip and put a pin on our world map so we can see where our club members have traveled. This is also a great time to let us know if you are interested in joining the club trip to Nagasaki, Japan this fall, or if you would like to travel to Bolivia or Rwanda for our international service projects. Our speaker is Emma Mulhern, President of North Star Rotex (and daughter of club member Linda Mulhern), which supports past, present and future Rotary Youth Exchange students in our area. Our youth exchange alumni are the key to a network of host families here and around the world. Rotex is a service organization made up of former Rotary Youth Exchange (RYE) students. They support future, current and recently returned RYE students by helping to run various orientations and overnight events. After all, who better to give advice about being an exchange student than someone that has already experienced it? |
