About 20 German exchange students said hello to their families on the other side of the world Friday, March 22, from WNZF's Flagler County studio. The students are from Erlenbach am Main, in Germany, and visited thanks to a connection with Flagler Palm Coast High School’s Almut Godette and the Rotary Club of Flagler County.

To contribute to travel costs for the program, bring checks to the service desk at Tom Gibbs Chevrolet, or have your car washed April 20, at Intracoastal Bank.
