"As host parents it was comforting to know
that rules and standards of behavior would be
enforced and we would receive your backing
should the need arise. It was an excellent
learning and sharing opportunity. The
support for hosts and students was excellent.
We will host another year when it seems best
for our family."

The Rosenberg family thinks nothing of
setting an extra place at the dinner
table.
In addition to guests and friends of their
eight children, Dr. George and Wendy
Rosenberg have welcomed nine foreign exchange
students into their Fawn home in the past 15
years.
"There was a time when we had eight, 10, 12
people around the dinner table," Wendy said.
"The more, the merrier."
