Proff Directory 2x9 'Y' Plans Trips to Europe

For Teens During Summer

As part of its Teen Summer Program offerings, the Westfield "Y" will be sponsoring two ventures across the Atlantic.

The first of these will be to Portugal, host country of EXPO '98, the last world exposition of the 20th century. From Sunday, August 2, through Thursday, August 13, Westfield teens will have the opportunity to go sightseeing in Lisbon, travel to the Lousa Mountains, and camp with "Y" teens from throughout the world.

They will also have a chance to take in the various pavilions and exhibits associated with EXPO '98, including the world's largest aquarium.

This summer, the Westfield "Y" will also continue its exchange with the YMCA from Lubeck, Germany. In late July, a contingent of teens from Germany will spend two weeks in the United States, interacting with Westfield youth and experiencing American culture.

Then, from August 10 to 19, teens from the Westfield "Y" will accompany the German visitors on their return to Bornhoved, and spend time camping with other teens from throughout Europe, as well as traveling to local points of interest.

At the end of the trip, the Westfield "Y" group will spend a few days in Copenhagen.

Each trip will be chaperoned by experienced youth workers, including the Westfield "Y" Teen Program Directors and Roosevelt Intermediate School Principal Kenneth Shulack.

An informational meeting concerning the trips will be held tonight, Thursday, April 23, at 7: 30 p. m. at the Westfield "Y," 220 Clark Street. For further information, please call Linda Johnson, Director of Youth Programs, at (908) 233- 2700 Extension No. 252.
