Incoming Youth Exchange 
School Year 2023-2024
 
This coming school year, Lenexa Rotary will be hosting two (2) Youth Exchange Students.  We understand both students are fairly proficient English speakers.
 
Park is coming from Korea. He will be a student at Shawnee Mission Northwest.  We are looking for a host family for Park beginning in October.
 
Peppa is from Spain and will attend DeSoto High.  Lenexa Rotarians, Nathalie Brech and Christopher Coleman will be host families.  We are looking for an additional host family for Peppa beginning around Spring Break in 2024.
 
 
SMNW Interact in Puerto Rico
 
 
The Shawnee Mission Northwest Interact, along with Jorge Coromac and Lenexa Rotary Steve Adams have returned from Puerto Rico.  We hope to have them come and speak to us in July to tell us about their trip.
Artist Reception for Lou Gehring
 
Photographic art of Lenexa Rotary Past President, Lou Gehring, will be exhibited in the Lenexa Art Gallery, Lenexa City Hall beginning July 11. 

There will be an Artist Reception Thursday, July 13, 6:00-7:30. I’m sure he would love to see many of his Rotary friends there!

Lou and Mickey have recently moved to Houston Texas to be closer to their son and grandchildren.

Thank you for spreading the word! Lou has been an important part of Lenexa Rotary.
