| | | | | Ludlow Rotary Club is seeking a host family for the first few months of an incoming exchange student. She will have up to 3 placements in host families over the course of her year in our area. She will be attending Green Mountain Union High School in Chester. There is bus service from the local communities. We have had every variation of host families in the program; Families with kids, without, empty nesters, two moms, two dads, single parents. We have clubs where the student is living with Rotarians and some where none of their families are Rotarians. We need a safe home with a separate dedicated bedroom for our 24/25 school year student. She plays soccer and basketball and her English is excellent. She will also be involved with the GMUHS Interact club. As a past host, I can tell you it can be a great experience that lasts long beyond the time in your home. We need a host family for this Fall. Can you help? Do you know someone who can? I'm happy to talk to anyone who has an interest. I am asking you to think of who you know who may be a good candidate to host. Please contact me if you or someone you know is interested in hosting. -- Brigid Sullivan brigid526@gmail.com or 802 259-2274 | | | | | Hi Folks, I hope all of you are enjoying the heat of summer.
