East Hawaii Rotary Clubs Host International Visitors
Rotary Club of Hilo hosted a multi-club steak fry at Wailoa State Park in Hilo on Janurary 28, 2013 to welcome fellow rotarians from Thailand, Taiwan, China, Russia and Alaska.

All five East Hawaii Rotary Clubs combined efforts to house, transport and plan sightseeing events for the guests. A lot of credit should be given to Treena Breyfogle and her committee for taking on the task of organizing all aspects of hosting this large international group. Also, special recognition is due to the Rotary Club of Hilo's Social Committee for putting-on another wonderful get together. As stated by Steve Yoshida, these types of Friendship Exchanges and the entire Rotary network of International Service are instrumental at opening our eyes to the world and building toward world peace.
