BELMORE — An area representative for ASSE International, Carol Hel- fenstein of Belmore, visited Mr. and Mrs. C. Easson and Lynn of Mount Forest last Thursday night. Lynn had just received her letter of acceptance from a West German family which will become Lynn's family for a year, starting in September. Lynn had been.waiting anxiously for the letter and her enthusiasm was evident the moment she phoned with the good news, Mrs. Helfen- stein reported. ° This moment when student and host family com- municate for the first time can create many mixed emotions, the ASSE representative added. , For the student there is ex- citement, an eagerness to "get going" and, of course, a little fear. But most of all " there is an overwhelming happiness that in fact the exchange is really going to happen. For parents the emotions can be somewhat the op- posite, she said. Happiness, yes, for the son or daughter, but also apprehension at cutting loose the apron strings. Europe is a long way away and a year is a long time. The Eassons will . now be writing back and forth with their West German coun- terparts, each family getting to know the other just a little' bit better before mid-August when Lynn will bid farewell to her parents and fly across the sea to meet her new family. • Meanwhile here in this area five families .have already 'decided to host _. a European boy or girl, Mrs. Helfenstein said, and she is eager to hear from other families who could offer a home to a student from Europe. Students from Iceland, Germany, Swit- zerland, Holland and Scandi- navia are still waiting. The host families already committed for 1985-86 live at Elmwood, Goderich, Wroxeter, Mildmay and Blyth and the students will be coming from Finland, Germany and Sweden. Families interested in hosting a strident are invited to call Carol and Harry Helfenstein at 392-6175. Hudson Bay was discov- ered by Henry Hudson 375 years ago.
