Foreign Visitors to Gilbert Lodge

In the middle is Laura de Witte, who is a foreign exchange student from the Nederland (we think of it as Holland).  She attended Brainerd Senior High School.  

Her parents, shown on the left, are Theo and Thea de Witte http://www.dewitte.nl.  They came over to be with her at graduation and meet her American host families.         

Laura pilots the Mighty Minnow along Gilbert Lake. 

She had a wonderful time on her foreign exchange visit to America and returned to her native Nederland with many great memories.
