Greater Sudbury Northern Life 
The Rotary Club of Sudbury and the Rotary Club of Sudbury Sunrisers will be entertaining applications from students interested in participating in their International Youth Exchange Program.
Any student seriously interested in this venture should submit an application, before Nov. 21, 2008. The only major prerequisite is age. The applicant should be between the ages of 16 and 17 at time of applying.
The successful candidate will leave on exchange the following August to a country presently exchanging with the local clubs' home district.
Currently the Rotary Club is dealing with the following countries: Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, France, Germany, Japan, New Zealand, Thailand, Italy, Switzerland and Mexico.
In countries where other than English is spoken, the student will learn that language as well as taking school studies in the language of the host country.
All expenses, other than educational, are the responsibility of the student's parents. Rotary, through a reciprocal arrangement with the hosting country, looks after all educational requirements.
The host Rotary Club will supply a monthly spending allowance, and look after accommodations. The student may be live with up to four host families.
The program is a popular one throughout Rotary International. Each year there are in excess of 10,000 students exchanging homes. This is a high school exchange, therefore all students are expected to attend school during the year of the exchange - August of next year until June of the following year.
While the applicant may wish to state a preference in their choice of country, it is not always possible to accommodate that choice. However, should this be the case, the student will be consulted about the relocation.
For further information or to pick up an application, please contact Rotarian Mary-Liz Warwick at 673-7272 or [email protected] .
