The Culver City Sister City Committee is looking for eight incoming 9th – 11th grade Culver City High School-age students and families interested in making a two-year commitment for a 10-day student exchange.
Participants go to Iksan City, So. Korea this coming summer, July 22-Aug. 3, and host a student the summer of 2018.
Students will learn about Korean culture. They will stay with families that have a child of similar age and gender.
Most trip expenses are covered, with the exception of the round-trip airfare.
We also welcome adults to apply to be a chaperon.
Download and complete the chaperon application for our selection committee. Not mandatory, but if you happen to speak Korean, that’s a plus.
We will spend the upcoming months learning about Korean culture, proper demeanor as an ambassador representing our city, trying out meals you are likely to encounter and maybe important phrases travelers want to know before visiting any non-English speaking country.
Visit our Youth Facebook page at http://tinyurl/lq5ax24. Scroll back to July and August 2011, 2013 and 2015 to read notes and see pictures from the last amazing trip to Iksan.
