The Haddonfield Japan Exchange is pleased to announce that we will be accepting applications for a student trip to Kasukabe, Japan, next summer.

The teen-aged age students selected will be immersed in Japanese culture and lifestyle, plus take part in daily activities. If you would like to see what goes on during your visit, just go to our website at www.HJEx.org.

This program, created in 2006, has provided life-changing experiences for hundreds of students, both in Kasukabe as well as Haddonfield. While there, you will live with a host family and share your daily meal with them at breakfast as well as dinner. Your activities during the day may include trips to Tokyo, a visit to Fuji san, Japan’s symbolic mountain, martial arts and the making of Japanese handicrafts.

Your 12-day stay will commence on July 22, 2016 and end on Aug. 3, 2016. The total cost will be airfare plus a nominal activity fee.

The HJE, is a non-profit all-volunteer group. Selected students will be expected to take part in classes prior to the trip, and the group will be expected to perform some sort of group song or dance, to be determined by the make-up of the group.
