Want to join the Jaycees' trip to Japan this summer? Come to our first meeting on March 5 at 7pm at the Jaycees' office - 474 W. Walnut, Pasadena. If you can't make it, but are interested in going to Kasukabe, please email [email protected]!

Dates are still being finalized, but tentatively set for the last week of July/first week of August 2019.

In 1985, the Pasadena Jaycees began a homestay exchange program with the Jaycees in Kasukabe, Japan. Alternating host locations every summer, one chapter sends members with local high school and college students to experience the other’s country and culture. Visitors stay in the homes of volunteer hosts to get the full-immersion experience. Group activities are planned for the duration of the visit, including sight-seeing, community service projects and an overnight trip to another city. High school and college students who accompany Jaycees on the trip will take part in a cultural exchange event with students from the hosting country.
