On a beautiful Saturday in September, host families from my cluster and three other clusters met for our annual host family picnic at Honeypot Hill Orchard in Stow, MA.   Counselors provided apple cider, water, and apple cider donuts.  Children had a chance to decorate cookies and participate in craft activities.

 

 

 

 

 

This meeting satisfies the State Department requirement to offer an annual host family workshop.  Families had a chance to connect with each other and look at handouts related to being a host family, provided by counselors.  This event also provided a cultural experience for our au pairs.
