10 April 2009 Massachusetts Springfield , Springfiled RC.

Our host family drove us to the appointment area, Showcase Cinemas. We said goodbye with our wonderful hosts and there were some tears as well. What they have done for us will always be remembered in our heart.
Here we are in Massachusetts, Springfield. First, we went to join lunch meeting with Springfield RC. and had a presentation there. We had a chance to meet many Rotarians who just came to welcome us from the other clubs. There were Presidents from 6 RC joined the meeting on that day. After that, we had a tour of Basketball Hall of Fame. It was really great place to visit because we got to know many superstars of basketball such as Larry Bird, Magic Johnson,etc. We also had a chance to do some exercises, too. Some of us tried to be a basketball player and they did it pretty well. It was the first time that we had sweat in America.
Finally we had a chance to get to know our new host families. Our host families in Springfield are as follows:
PP.Quanchai and Chawengsak stay with PP. Jay Leib ( Originally Quanchai will stay with P.Jim Russell, but Marion Russell isn’t well )
Unchalee stays with Debra Boronski Burack.

For dinner some of us went to join at Jay‘s house to join an Easter’s celebration dinner.
