I am currently looking for host families for a group of Colombian students that will be attending LDSS and Wallace Public for the month of October (arrive Oct. 6, depart Nov. 3). Families are paid $125/week to cover the costs of room and board. The students have after school activities planned three days a week and full day excursions every Saturday. They arrive soon so any help in spreading the word would be much appreciated. Feel free to pass along my contact information or let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Beth McIntosh Host Family Coordinator Red Leaf Student Programs beth.mcin@gmail.com 519-284-2492
