Ready? Set? GO!


We cannot believe February 21st is right around the corner! It seems like yesterday we were all anxiously waiting to hear from the Rotary Club as to whom was chosen to go on this awesome adventure. Most of us have never traveled out of the country and to have an opportunity to go to Australia, on behalf of Rotary International, is beyond our wildest dreams! The Rotary Club has been sponsoring vocational group study exchanges for some time now, but we have the opportunity to roll out a new path with each member of the team being a wheelchair user. The team, with Rotary's support, are excited to show the world that nothing can keep us down or stop us from fulfilling a dream!


We leave Phoenix, AZ on Saturday, February 21st and fly to LAX. Once in LA we will board the plane headed for Sydney and 14 hours later we are down under! The team will spend the next 3 weeks cruising Australia, learning all about the people and customs, visiting locations specific to each of our vocations, sharing our lives and Arizona with Rotarians, and taking the time to site see a time or two ;-)


Please follow us along this adventure!
