Student Spaceflight Experiment Program
Edina Morningside Rotary Club member Dr. Anne Marie Leland, Director of Community Education for Edina Public Schools, shared the exciting news about the Student Spaceflight Exploration Program. It is a truly exceptional opportunity to foster curiosity and creativity, to develop critical thinking, and communication and collaboration skills through an authentic, scientific experiment design process. Edina Public School students will participate in the rigor of scientific competition and experience the thrill of having their experiment, or an experiment from their school district, included onboard the International Space Station. SSEP is another example of how Edina Public Schools is enabling each and every student to discover their possibilities and thrive.

Edina Rotary Clubs are looking for Host Families for 2022-23 School Year
Become a Host Family TODAY!! Just a few months can turn into an experience that lasts a lifetime! Edina’s Rotary Clubs are looking for families that wish to expand their world and learn more about another culture while sharing their culture with a Rotary Exchange Student. The primary requirement is a willingness to open your heart and home to an exchange student and accept him or her as your own. Family makeup is less important than a desire to host. Families with or without kids, empty-nesters, single parents.... it’s all a part of the experience!
YOU ARE WHAT WE NEED!!
Edina Rotary Morningside and Noon clubs will be hosting 2 International Students next year, from Czech Republic and Austria. We are looking for 4-6 willing families to open their hearts and homes and share our wonderful community with these kids. Each family has the opportunity to spend 3 -4 months with one of the two students, increasing the students’ exposure to our rich and diverse culture via three different host families over the course of one school year. Rotary Exchange students have gone through a thorough assessment and orientation program to prepare them for their exchange year.
Begin an adventure.... for an experience that lasts a lifetime!!! This program is a part of Rotary International, a worldwide service club that promotes peace, goodwill and understanding on local, national and international levels. Rotary members perform community services in their local communities (such as providing scholarships, maintaining parks or helping food shelves) and around the world (such as clean water initiatives, Polio Plus vaccinations and youth projects).
To learn more visit the North Star Youth Exchange Web site https://northstaryouthexchange.com/host-families for specific details on our program for inbound and outbound students or on becoming a host family. Call or email Heather Hansen if you are interested in becoming a host family. 612-366-0051 or heather@parkwood.net

Building Good Will and Better Friendships... one pub at a time.
The Rotary clubs of Edina Morningside, Edina, Bloominigton and Eden Prairie AM are proud to support the Afghan Community in Minnesota Rotary Community Corps.
District 5950 Rotarians from several clubs support the Afghan Community in Minnesota “Rotary Community Corps" and gathered for its inaugural meeting Feb 5th 2022.This community is expected to double in size as refugee families resettle; more Rotary volunteers and club sponsors are sought. For much more information and details.
These meetings bring Afghans together for fellowship. They are being resettled throughout the metro area and often do not live near each other. It gives them a space to tell their stories. It is also a time that Rotarians help connect them to services and resources. Your presence is welcome. Check with President Steve May about resources you might have to bring to these meetings.
This RCC is the realization of a wonderful concept: established members of the Twin Cities Afghan community provide mutual support to its newest community members comprising refugee families that fled Afghanistan in August to resettle amongst us in Minnesota. 750 people have resettled since October 2021 and another 750 are expected in the coming months. People resettling in these numbers have overwhelmed the system, including resettlement agencies and state and local government service organizations. As Rotarians, what we aim to do is to augment (not replace) the services already in-place, while simultaneously supporting the Afghan Community in Minnesota as it becomes recognized as the “go-to” mutual support organization for this community.
Because these new arrivals are resettling throughout the Twin Cities, we seek the support of additional sponsoring clubs and /or individual Rotarians.
Afghan Community in Minnesota RCC meetings are currently scheduled every other Saturday from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. Meetings are held in the auditorium of the Normandale Elementary School, 5701 Normandale Road, Edina MN 55424. Enter Door 10 at the South end of the building.
Please contact: Bob Keller, tel. 612-327-0682, email bob@3dbd.net
