Have a small party or get together and invite some of the other exchange students and
maybe even their hosts students. This was done a few times during the last few exchanges
and they we well received. If your exchange student is invited to one of these parties, then
that’s one less night that you need to organize. You may need to contact other families to
avoid the possibility of too many parties on one night.
You may even want to plan your own little excursion to anywhere you want. Including
some of your guest’s friends could make it nicer for them. And their hosts could do the
same in return.
Playing pool, twister (I hear they loved this once!) and cards--maybe they can teach you
some new games!
The Erie Otters (http://www.ottershockey.com/index.htm) have four home games during the exchange.
Pentagon Paintball (operated by our very own Athletic Trainer, Nicole)
If you have others, or if any of these suggestions are out of date, let me know and I’ll make changes.
