Saturday 04 - Sunday 05 April

The team enjoyed a leisurely morning with their respective hosts before assembling outside the YMCA in Staunton for more wrenching goodbyes as we bade farewell to our Area 4 friends.



On the trip towards Woodstock we stopped off in Newmarket for lunch with some of the local Rotarians there. We then split up to go different ways with our new hosts from Area 2. The rest of Saturday was spent getting to know our hosts and the new area.



Sunday was a welcomed rest day and most of the hosts and GSE members used the opportunity to tour the countryside, and enjoy the scenic beauty of the area, all except Grant who used the opportunity to get some ploughing done!



Sunday did have a serious aspect for a few hours as the team delivered its penultimate presentation to the Woodstock Rotary Club who were joined by some visiting Rotarians from nearby clubs.



A busy week in Luray and Woodstock lies ahead, with a long-awaited highlight being the trips into Washington DC on Tuesday and Thursday, which the team are most excited about and grateful for!
