Hep the GSE Team

Club Outreach Subcommittee Chair Rotarian Sara Bradley asks, "Think about hosting a GSE team member this Spring. The incoming GSE team from Thailand will be in our area on or around March 24th. They will be staying for approximately one week. The team consists of 3 males and 2 females. They will have tons of group activities planned so you will not be solely responsible for all of their activities. Those who have had this experience before can tell you how great of an opportunity this is. Please let me know if you're interested in hosting a team member."
