Between Jan. 6 and Feb. 6, several students from Snoqualmie’s Sister City – Gangjin, Korea – will be attending Mount Si High School and staying with host families in Snoqualmie. During those four weeks, the host families will provide housing and meals for a student and will share cultural traditions and lifestyles.

A few homes are still needed to ensure that all the Korean students registered for this program will be able to come. This opportunity could be one of a family’s most rewarding experiences.

Interested families can contact Tina McCollum at valent6222@aol.com or Michelle Maddux at michellemaddux@comcast.net.
