RYE 2018-2019 Orientation

Bob Heydorn, Rotary District 6630 Youth Exchange Chairman, gave a warm welcome to the 2018-19 Inbound and Rebound foreign exchange students for their two-day orientation hosted by the Akron Rotary Camp. "Rotary Youth Exchange builds peace one young person at a time," said Bob. "Students learn a new language, discover another culture, and truly become global citizens." The students, from high schools across Northeast Ohio, began their year of adventure and personal growth, in which they would be exploring diversity of cultures and forming new friendships, with an afternoon pontoon boat tour of the beautiful portage lakes.
