ROTARY YOUTH EXCHANGE

I had the pleasure of attending the final briefing for our outbound exchange students last weekend. These very brave young people are about to embark on a year abroad and I am sure will be great ambassadors for Rotary and Australia. We send with them our best wishes.

Your YE Committee have put in many long hours in coordinating and training our Outbound and Inbound students. The host clubs are to be congratulated for giving these young people the opportunity of a lifetime. If you have some free time or taking a short trip give some thought to taking one of our Inbound students, you will benefit from the experience just as they will. I must thank Chairman George Weston for his hard work over the past year and welcome Judith Hall as incoming Chairman. I also thank the whole committee for their tireless and consistent hard work to ensure the success and safety for the exchange students. Your work is greatly appreciated.
