News Release

********************

Rotary International District 7010 is seeking four outstanding professionals to visit Japan from March 24th to April 24, 2012, as part of the Group Study Exchange (GSE) program of The Rotary Foundation. Through the GSE program, teams of four members and a Rotarian leader exchange visits between paired areas in different countries. During the four weeks abroad, team members share personal knowledge of their own country and experience the customs, vocations, and lifestyles of another.

The purpose of a Group Study Exchange is to promote international understanding and goodwill through personto-
person contact. While abroad, team members stay in Rotarians’ homes and have the opportunity to meet their
vocational counterparts. They will also give presentations to Rotary clubs and other groups about their home communities and Canada. The Rotary Foundation provides a round-trip air ticket, and local Rotarians in the host
country provide meals, lodging, and group travel within their district. Team members pay for personal and incidental expenses.

Applicants should be between the ages of 25 and 40, and employed full-time in a recognized business or profession.
The deadline for applying is July 25th, 2011.

For more information, or to obtain an application form, please contact: Alex Speirs, GSE Chair for the Rotary Club of North Bay. (705) 474-4809.

GSE Team Member application forms are available on the district website at http://www.clubrunner.ca/Portal/SitePages/SitePage.aspx?accountid=50040&pid=46748
