Vineyard Rotary Club

Offers Russian Study Trip

The Rotary Club of Martha’s Vineyard is seeking applications for team members for a group study exchange to western Russia. The program provides a unique educational and cultural opportunity for young professionals between the ages of 25 and 40 to travel in the host country in a 4-week program. The experience will introduce the visiting team to the history, business, industry, government, education and culture of the country. 

The Rotary district slated for the visit includes principal cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg. The visit will take place from March 28 to April 25, 2009.

All expenses except for personal items are paid for by Rotary. Applications for team members are due to the Martha’s Vineyard Rotary Club by Oct. 9.

More information and applications are available by getting in touch with Adam Wilson at the Oak Bluffs town building department at 508-693-3554, extension 123. Application materials are also available through the Rotary Foundation Web site at rotary.org.
