A Janesville foreign exchange program is looking for families to host students from Argentina for two weeks in 2019.

Every year the interAmigos Exchange program hosts students from Rosario and Funes, in Argentina.

And last year, 11 lucky Janesville students from Craig and Parker high schools traveled to Rosario.

Yesterday 19 Argentinian students between the ages of 15 to 17 flew into Chicago and traveled by bus to Janesville.

During their stay the students will shadow their Janesville host family at Craig and Parker high schools.

The students will also take a trip to Madison, to see the State Capitol and the Wisconsin Historical Society Museum.

InterAmigos Exchange program said in a press release it is planning for another group of Janesville students to travel to Argentina.

An informal meeting for interested students will be held at 6 p.m. on Oct. 30 at Craig High School in Janesville.
