Lawmaster to travel Europe

Misty Lawmaster, a seventh grader at North Wood Middle School, Wakarusa, is set and ready for a trip to Europe sponsored through the Sl Joe/Elkhart County delegation for the People to People Student Ambassador Program. Misty and her traveling companions will leave at the close of the school year, and enjoy a 21day program of exchange to England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland for meetings with teenagers and government officials and home visits with host families. People to People was started by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1956. Other programs like Sister cities, Project HOPE, and Pen Pals were founded at the same time as People to People and have become independent programs since that time. Student Ambassadors are found through anonymous recommendations from past students and chaperones as well as teachers working with the teens. Only 30 junior high and 30 high school students from the the St. Joe/Elkhart County delegation are selected each year to participate. Candidates are carefully interviewed before their acceptance, and are expected to share the overseas experiences with schools and civic clubs when they return. Students can also earn high school and college credit because of the program’s many educational activities. In order to participate in the program, Lawmaster and her peers are expected to raise $4,244 tuition fee, which includes all meals, transportation and educational activities during the trip. Misty and her peers are encouraged to do so through sponsorships from area civic and church groups as well as private donations from citizens, youth groups, or other individuals and groups interested in helping. Students are also encouraged to raise their own funds by performing odd jobs for friends, family, neighbors and the community. Anyone interested in “hiring” Misty for shoveling snow or odd jobs around the house should contact her at home, 773-7892. Those wishing to make a private donation to help her reach her goal may send money to Misty Lawmaster, Customer ' I.D. 500225, Accounting Department, People to People, Student Ambassador Program, Dwight D. Eisenhower Building, 110 South Ferrall Street, Spokane,

Washington, 99202-4800. The tuition fee must be raised by March 30 in order for Lawmaster to qualify for the trip.
