Owensboro Sister Cities and Regions Program
Our internationally recognized Owensboro Sister Cities and Regions program is in need of broad community support to host the largest one exchange wehave ever done!
On October 16 the Palacky University Chorus of approximately 30 persons willbe arriving in Owensboro to provide us with a series of communityperformances. We are in great need for the following:
1. Home host families providing lodging, breakfast and most dinners for thestudent(s) you host in your home arriving the evening of October 16 anddeparting the morning after Halloween. More information will be providedhost families. Guests will be dropped off at central locations for theirdaily activities.
2. Community institutions, organizations, civic clubs to host the choir atevents to allow our citizens to interact with the university students. It isa mutual learning experience. We can arrange for the choir to sign a song ortwo, or provide a performance depending on what you have planned. We areseeking that the host organization provide a meal.
3. Community businesses to offer to provide services at cost or slightlybelow cost (gratis is better we are a 501c (3)) to help us offset thecosts of this exchange. As you can imagine restaurants able to help providelunches are most needed.
4. Make a point to welcome the choir members to our community. We would liketo see our four SACS accredited institutions of higher education attracting increased numbers of students from our Sister Cities and giving our ownstudents increased opportunities to study in our Sister Cities.
5. Inform us of potential events or ideas which could be incorporated intothe schedule.We are a group of community volunteers and have no office support.
