Please join us for an overview of the 2025 St. Croix County Housing Study, with Meschke highlighting some of the data gathered and the planned next steps.
Our Club has agreed to host Ian, a Belgian youth exchange student, for the 2026-27 school year. He is 17 years old, speaks French, is good at speaking English, plays soccer, and is open to all new foods and opportunities (except mushrooms or cabbage).
Please consider inviting Ian into your family for one of the exchange terms. While ideally the host family would have one or more middle or high school students living at home, that is certainly not a significant factor. The host family just needs to have a place for the student to study and a bedroom that is either private or shared with a member of the same sex, but with separate beds.
There are three exchange term opportunities: The 1st 3.5-month term (August 24 through Thanksgiving), the 2nd term (post-Thanksgiving to spring break), or the 3rd term (spring break to the end of the school year).
If you or someone you know would be interested in serving as a host family for Ian, please connect with Roy Sjoberg.

As we continue the summer and head into fall, we need to continue to water the pollinator gardens at CNC three times each week. Watering can be done by one Rotarian each time.
