Morning Star Rotary's Exchange Student for the 2024-2025 school year, Antek from Poland, arrived safe and sound on Sunday, August 18th (see photo - he's the one in the blazer). Antek and our MSR Justin, his in-country Counselor, already met up! It sounds like his English is quite good and he's settling in nicely with his host family.
He'll be joining our meetings once in awhile, but the magic of the exchange experience happens during meetups with YOU, living your best lives!
The goal is that he hang out with members at least once per month. Activities you could invite him to include meals at your home, games, tours, shows, jaunts on your yacht (include me please LOL!), gatherings for other groups you're involved with, family parties, etc.
We also are hoping a few of you can be available to drive him to some of the district activities he's required to attend, to give his host family a break. Plus the car rides are a great opportunity for us to get to know him. (Note that federal law says if you're alone with a minor, you need clearances, but if it's the minor and at least two other people you do not need clearances.)
"Rotary believes in developing the next generation of leaders. Our programs help younger leaders build leadership skills, expand education and learn the value of service."
At our August 15, 2024 meeting, Morning Star Rotary recognized four Bethlehem area students who were sponsored by our club this year to attend Camp Neidig, STEM-YEA, and a Long-Term Youth Exchange to Spain. In addition, two Freedom High School students were recognized for receiving our inaugural MSR scholarships named in memory of two former MSR members. Congratulations to these outstanding students and thank you to our Youth Services Coordinator, Jennifer Cunningham, for all her hard work overseeing these various programs.
