Rotary Club of Indianola has been involved with Rotary Youth Exchange since the 1960's. When travel restrictions and other issues created reluctance by host families to participate the Club was unable to host inbound students. Club officials are working diligently to restart the inbound program for the 2024/2025 School year.
This year the Club approved an application for outbound studies for a local student. Norah requested and was approved to study in France for the 2023/2024 School year. Nora left home the last week in August, arriving at her destination with two other out bound students, one from Japan and one from New York City. Norah is really looking forward to learning about new cultures, perfecting her language skills and studying in France.
Upon her arrival her new "host Sister" and family met her at the airport with a sign and her "host bother" presented her with a drawing that will most likely be cherished for many years to come.
