Host Family Opportunity for Exchange Students!
by Sarah Ramsey 07 Nov '22

07 Nov '22

Hello Neighbors! I’m reaching out about two wonderful high school exchange students coming to the Pittsburgh area. Maybe you or someone you know would be interested in the opportunity to be a volunteer host family. Host families can be retired, single parents, couples with or without children of any age. A volunteer host family simply welcomes the student as one of their own and adds an extra plate at the table. A host family enjoys the experience of learning about a new culture and sharing their own with the student. Students attend the public high school closest to their host family. They speak good English, have their own medical insurance and spending money to cover personal expenses. Here are some notes from the students: Benedetta is a 17 year-old girl from Italy. She will be attending the January 2023 highschool semester. I am a cheerful and extroverted girl that loves meeting new people. Always with a smile printed on my face, everybody says that the good thing about me is that I can turn a bad situation into a good one. I am curious, and I have a thirst for knowledge, indeed after high school, I want to go to a University. Furthermore, I am creative and I like to differentiate myself from others. I don’t have a particular hobby, because I enjoy doing different activities every time. I love to fill the days hanging out with my friends, cooking pizza, and listening to music. I am looking forward to cooking and baking traditional American foods for my host family. Toni is a 16 year-old boy from Spain. He will be attending the August 2023 highschool semester. I am a loving, fun, mature and very sociable guy. I am a very sporty person, I like to dedicate many hours to sports, but what I dedicate more hours to is soccer because I am in a team with my friends in which I train two days a week and on weekends I have a game, other sports that I like a lot are water sports, either surfing or paddle surfing, sometimes I also go mountain biking, in winter, when the water is cold, I go skiing every Sunday. I am very excited to go to the United States . . . I would love that you welcome me into your family as one more and we can exchange knowledge and have fun together and I hope to become good friends. Learn more about becoming a host! <https://www.ciee.org/partner/hosts/host-families?fbclid=IwAR3gAGXwr0uTK3joD…> If you or someone you know is interested, start your host family application at www.ciee.org/host. I would love to help answer any questions you might have! Sarah Seramsey(a)gmail.com -- Sarah Ramsey

Reminder: Bach Choir Concert Next Weekend - Nov. 12 & 13
by Rob Schwartz 06 Nov '22

06 Nov '22

I know that a fellow Highland Park resident and member of the Bach Choir, Liz Criss, sent a message out about a week ago on this same topic. But I thought it was worth mentioning again. The Bach Choir will be performing its first concert of the season featuring the works of Handel and Mozart next weekend. It's sure to be a musical and visual delight. We will be singing Handel's Coronation Anthems and Mozart's Coronation Mass with the 24-piece Academy Chamber Orchestra inside one of the most beautiful churches in Pittsburgh, the First Presbryterian Church on Sixth Avenue downtown, which features 13 Tiffany stained glass windows. You can purchase tickets here <https://www.bachchoirpittsburgh.org/tickets/>. If you use the code TEN22 (or the one Liz provided) you can get a "friends and family" discount.
