Rotary club looks for members for international travel

Rotary District 5910 is looking for a team of five individuals to participate in the group study exchange program of Rotary International.

This year the group will be sent to Sao Palo, Brazil said program chairman John Delaney.

This group of people will be overseas for around 30 days, and all expenses will be paid, except for souvenirs and personal items.

"The whole objective is to stimulate international connections," Delaney said. "This is an experience the cannot be bought."

The group will be immersed in the culture, staying in local homes and getting an insider's look at how Brazilians eat, work, shop and recreate.

Before the trip begins members will plan out the trip, including the uniforms they will wear. Rotary International will pay for language programs for those chosen to go on the program.

Applicants must be 25 to 40 years of age, currently be employed in a vocational job and have held a job for the last two years and must reside in Brazos County.

For more information or an application contact John Delaney at j_delaney@verizon.net. Applications are due Sept. 30.
