Would you be open to hosting an international journalist in your home for 4 nights in September? We’re looking for Cook County individuals or families to host a visiting WPI international journalists during their stay in our area, September 14–18. They arrive Sunday, September 14th, in the afternoon and depart Thursday, September 18th, in the morning.
As a host, you’d provide:
- A private bedroom
- Morning meals - Could be a serve yourself situation.
- Transportation to and from Cook County Higher Education at scheduled times
- Evening meals
*Ideally, hosts would live relatively close to Grand Marais to help minimize travel time for the journalist, as their schedule includes daily activities and trips throughout the county.
If you're interested in this unique opportunity to connect and share our community, please reach out at 218-387-3411 ext. 2, or [email protected].
Thank you for helping us welcome the journalists to Cook County!
Not able to host, but I’d be interested in the cultural exchange—both learning from them and sharing about Cook County. We’ll be holding a Panel Discussion at the ACA on Tuesday, September 16, and a Community Potluck Dinner on Wednesday, September 17. See the attached flyer or find out more info at www.mycche.org under events.
