Four Avenues of Service - GSE Hosting Opportunities

HOME HOSTS NEEDED FOR INBOUND GSE TEAM

November 12 -18 2008

    The inbound GSE team from England will be staying with us for these dates.  It is a wonderful opportunity for you to make a new international friend.  Milt, Helene, and I have all home-hosted many times, to the point that we feel slightly guilty about not giving others the chance to participate and enjoy this unique experience.  Mike Brill and John Glenn have home-hosted several times over the last few years.  Either of them would be happy to share with you the many benefits of home-hosting a GSE team member.

    The team consists of a team leader (male Rotarian retired corporate banker) and the following four team members: a female cancer nurse, a male paramedic, a female HR manager, and a female function coordinator in hotels and leisure services.

If circumstances prevent you from offering your home to one of the inbound team members, note that we will need several drivers and people willing to coordinate a vocationally relevant day on November 13^th for one of the above team members.  Also, we will need someone to open up their home and host a social party, perhaps a BBQ on Sunday afternoon, the 16^th.  The team will be attending the Foundation Gala on the evening of the 15^th.    

Please let me know if you want to participate in any of these categories: home host, driver, vocational day coordinator, party host.

Be advised, it can become habit forming.

YIRS, Jim Dowler
