Postcards from LWC: Fugate Family 2020-05-08 - Columbia, KY - Photo courtesy Lindsey Wilson College. Dakota Smith writes, "Meet Andy, Casey, Jacob and Catelynn Fugate. They have been a host family for 4 years, and their favorite thing about it is the opportunity to expand their horizons by being exposed to different cultures, while cultivating lifelong memories and relationships with their host students. Their children are able to experience the world in an entirely unique way, and their entire family has been greatly enriched by this experience and are looking forward to hosting many more students in the years to come! A fun fact about them is that they are thrill seekers! From jumping out of airplanes, to paragliding over the Rocky and Appalachian Mountains, to hang gliding, hot air ballooning, zorbing, scuba diving and more, they are always seeking the next big thrill! Their children are adventurous souls as well; having participated in activities such as whitewater rafting, zip lining, Zorbing and deep sea fishing!
