Lincoln and the nearby communities are home to many institutions of higher learning which attract students from around the world. Each year, Rotary 14 hosts a picnic for international students to create an opportunity to spread goodwill between our families and the students. Of course, being the Cornhusker State, we include some traditional corn-on-the-cob and other American picnic menu items along with a time of fellowship and games. The institutions help coordinate this event and Rotary 14 members provide gift bags and door prizes to help welcome these students to Nebraska.
It's been a long-standing tradition for Rotary 14 to host a picnic for collegiate international students in our community.
