The Sister City link between Medford and Alba, Italy, has always been special. From its beginning in 1960 the program has emphasized genuine friendship between people. For fifty years the two cities have reduced the thousands of miles between them to an insignificant distance as the lives of the people of Medford and Alba have become intertwined in deep and enduring friendships.

The Italian Student Exchange begins on Sunday, August 30! We are excited to welcome the Italian students and their chaperones to Medford. They will arrive Sunday evening and remain with us until they depart on Friday afternoon, September 11.

During their visit, the Italian students will stay with their American student host families. In March, the American students will travel to Italy and stay with their Italian student’s family.

In addition to spending time with their host families, the students and chaperones have many exciting group activities:
• Hike Upper Table Rock

• Enjoy activities at Rogue X
• Receive recognition at a Medford City Council meeting
• Go on an overnight camping trip
