PROGRAM

John Aquino introduced our exchange student Madeline Johansson who showed a power point presentation of her home in Sweden which is a farm on 300 acres of land.  She has two sisters, her mother is a financial planner and her father is a farmer.  Madeline loves to play golf, travel and hanging out with her friends.  She said that school spirit here, is much higher than in Sweden since Sweden schools to not have school sports however school in Sweden is much harder there than here.  During her nine months of stay here, Madeline visited Disney World, New York City, the Keys, Hawaii and the Bahamas.  She was very thankful to our Rotary Club for sponsoring her and gave special thanks to several Rotarians and her host family.
