Hartford Rotary
Host Families Needed for 2018-2019 
Hartford Rotary's next inbound exchange student will arrive in late August, and be with us, and be a student at Hartford High, until early summer 2019.  We will be lucky to host 17 year old Monika Adamczyk from Chelm in eastern Poland.  Besides being fluent in English she is competent in Spanish.  We would like to get commitments from three families in the Hartford area, each to host her for 3 to 4 month.  Rotary pays a monthly stipend to help Monika have some spending money, and the school chips in with lunch money.  Ask your family if they would like to have this fun and educational opportunity, while providing Monika with the same  opportunities as other young adults in the home.  

Monika is now a sophomore at a Lyceum in Chelm, which is near the Ukrainian border.  She is the only youngster at home weekdays, and her studies emphasize chemistry, biology, Spanish, English and Polish language and literature.  Her older sister studies in Wroclaw and is home weekends.  The sisters get along well and with their parents emphasize the outdoors with hiking, biking and sailing.  She thinks she might like to study dentistry or orthodontology in college, but thinks a year in the US will open up other opportunities for careers related to medicine.  She's fine with household chores, says she is neat and tidy, but isn't into cooking.   She will be a great addition to any receptive family in the area.

Notes from the coach:
The Hartford/Slinger OriOwls had a good first showing at the Tosa West Early Bird Invitational on Saturday.  

It was good to be back on top in our relays.   The 200 Free Relay won by several body lengths.  Freshman Paige Dulski led off, followed by sophomore Irene Wilson, senior Shayna Krist, and junior Olivia Meinberg anchored.   The 200 Medley Relay came in 2nd.  2017 State Qualifiers Olivia Meinberg and Irene Wilson came out strong, and Paige Dulski and Slinger's Maria Graziano swam very respectable legs.

Olivia Meinberg was 1st in the 200 IM and 2nd in the 100 Butterfly

Irene Wilson was 2nd in the 50 Free, in a very close race.

Next up:  the Pike Lake Challenge on Friday afternoon at 3:00pm.  We are coordinating with the Cross Country team to converge on the State Park Beach, then run up to the tower.
