This thank you letter is long overdue, and for that I apologise. Both Melani and Clarissa have settled in and are very, very happy to be in sunny Florida! Melani was a bit homesick for the first couple of weeks, but when she got over that she has not looked back once.
We will be forever grateful to you and you absolutely fantastic staff who dealt so efficiently and professionally with all the aspects of this opportunity for our kids. We are especially grateful that you were willing to give Melani a second chance. It has turned out to be the best decision she has ever made. She told me yesterday that she would love to stay on for another six months if any of the other country clubs will have her! Clarissa is also keen on staying on, so whatever the clubs are offering these kids, they are doing it right!
We miss them terribly, but we know that they are fine, that they are taking huge steps to becoming independent young adults and that they are safe, thanks to you, your team and your partners in the USA.
Thank you very very much, from the bottom of my heart! I hope that all of you have a blessed Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year.
