The Rotary Club of Traverse City is currently seeking applications from young professionals (ages 25 t0 40, and not members of a Rotary Club) to be part of a team of five for a four-week group study exchange opportunity to The Netherlands in April 2013.
The team will represent Rotary District 6290 (western Michigan and northern Ontario) for four weeks in Rotary District 1530 (the northwest corner of The Netherlands.) This district includes the city of Amsterdam and its immediate surroundings. Amsterdam and The Netherlands (aka Holland) have a rich and fascinating history, including almost 400 years as an independent and progressive nation in highly developed northern Europe. Members of the team will have the opportunity to experience first-hand the culture and way of life in Holland as well as conduct frequent discussions about their profession with counterpart Dutch practitioners.
Interviews for the team leader position (must be a Rotarian) will take place, Sunday, October 13 in Cadillac. Team member interviews (cannot be members of a Rotary Club) will be held one week later on Saturday, October 20, also in Cadillac.
Leader/member application forms can be downloaded from the rotary.org web site.
Completed application forms need to be sent to Jeff Hickman, jeffrey.r.hickman@gmail.com or the Traverse City Rotary office.
Applications are due no later than September 25, 2012.
