  1. Bandey-Hefler Fellowship Exchange Presenter: Date:

  2. What is the Bandey-Hefler Exchange? A 12-day Rotary friendship exchange between Rotary families of USA District 7910 and UK Districts 1110 & 1145 • 20 UK couples will travel to the US in the fall of 2018 (Sept 26-Oct 8) • Each UK couple will be hosted by three US hosts • In 2019, 20 US couples will travel to the UK

  3. Why should you participate For those who have participated, it is international Rotary in action at its very best. • Form ever-lasting friendships across the Atlantic and with other Rotarians in District 7910 • Share your favorite places and your club • Trade family and Rotary stories • You’ll have the rare opportunity to see England in a unique and wonderful Rotary way

  4. What you need to do Be a gracious host for a UK couple for 4 days and nights • Coordinate with two other hosts and the UK couple to give them a wide spectrum of experiences that they’ll remember forever • Pay for all of their food and entertainment expenses (you can graciously accept one meal if they insist) • Participate in the Welcome and Farewell dinners and attend a special District event

  5. A full-time commitment for 4 days To become a host is a truly rewarding experience, but also one that requires a commitment of time and money for four days • Both you and your spouse/partner are expected to devote their full time with the guests • Try and forget about work and give yourselves a chance to really get to know one another • Our visitors want to become acquainted with our “American Way of Life” and to make new and lasting friendships

  6. Who gets to go to UK in 2019? First-time hosts who have never traveled to the UK before on a Bandey-Hefler Exchange get first priority • Both you and your spouse/partner will become eligible for an all-expense-paid 12-day trip to England in 2019 (excl. airfare) • Most of us Bandey-Hefler veterans continue to host because we love the friendships and wonderful experiences that we shared
