One area of concern to All Stars is getting all counties to complete Tomahawk Service Report forms. Please make every effort in your county to acknowledge the wonderful service projects your All Stars are completing. You may want to add a coach to your county team. Since 1982, hundreds of Tennessee 4-H families have experienced the excitement and joy of hosting a Japanese young person or adult in their homes. Host families come from both rural and urban areas and from a wide diversity of backgrounds.
Host families are responsible for providing lodging, meals and family activities.
The exchangees bring spending money and are covered by insurance. This is not a tourist program, but an opportunity for host families to share their everyday lives. Next week, a packet of information and application forms for the summer program will be sent to each county in the weekly mail packets. Please share this information with the 4-H families in your county. Families who wish to host are encouraged to submit an application by April 15.
