STERLING, IL – Rotary District 6420 is fortunate to have had numerous outstanding high school students who were interested in being chosen as 2018-19 Outbound Youth Exchange Students. On Saturday November 4th eleven student candidates and their parents were interviewed by District Youth Exchange Team members at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Sterling.  

The D6420 interview teams, consisting Rotarians, Rebound students, and host parents, was led by District Youth Exchange Chair Tom Brooks and Outbound Coordinator Dave Smith. The teams were impressed with the accomplished students and the support of their parents. All eleven candidates were approved as District 6420’s 2018-19 class of Outbound Exchange Students.  Congratulations students, and thank you to all of the Rotarians from our district clubs who have worked so hard to make Youth Exchange successful!
