Several French teenagers visited Frederick, MD, and York, PA, through Horizons du Monde during August.  The teens and host families enjoyed a going away party at the home of Ed and Merrie Aiken at Victory Equine Centre/Cedar Ridge Farm in Frederick.

According to their web site, Horizons du Monde is a registered Tour and Travel Agency dedicated to the improvement of international understanding through the development and the promotion of quality Homestay Programs encouraging intercultural friendship. We are committed to providing a rich and rewarding experience for our students.
