Your help and participation are needed in two ways.
- Suggest what places, site or things you think we should show to the Brazilian RFE team (i.e. Cranberry marsh, history museum, cheese factory, etc.). We have two days, Thursday Oct 3 and Friday Oct. 4 to fill.
- Serve as a host family for one couple or one or two of the single women for two nights (Thursday and Friday). This would include dinner with your family on Thursday evening and breakfast on Friday and Saturday mornings. All other meals are provided, and host families are encouraged to join the RFE team for activities and meals.
There is no cost to the host families to join the activities of the group-provided meals. On Friday evening, Chuck and Gayle Gibbons will host a reception before going for a Wisconsin fish fry at a local restaurant. Chuck Gibbons is the club’s RFE coordinator for the exchange. Please contact him (715-459-1301 or cgibbs71@charter.net) with your ideas, offer to host, or any questions you may have.
