Widnes Rotary Club were contacted by Alex, a young man from California, who was on a student exchange in District 2240 in the Czech Republic/Slovakia earlier this summer.
His mum Julie had been an exchange student in 1990/91 and stayed with Widnes Rotarian Peter Herriman and his family. Both Julie and the Herrimans children kept in touch.
Alex very much wanted to see the place his mum had visited all those years ago and arrangements were made for him to stay with Rotarian Lesley Howell and her husband Mal for a few days. Alex was treated to a trip to Liverpool and as a keen motor racing fan, Oulton Park.
Alex also got to meet Rotarian Peter and his wife Chris, who his Mum had stayed with in 1990. They took him out for the day, no doubt reminiscing about her visit!
Alex was a charming, polite young man and will no doubt become a staunch Rotarian!
