Seven students from Quebec City are in Altona this weekend volunteering at the Sunflower Festival.

The students are part of a volunteer exchange through the Society for Educational Visits and Exchanges in Canada.

Six Miller students will then help at a festival in Quebec August 2-6.

Marie Tremblay-Paradis is a secondary four student in Quebec City.

She says she will be helping with the parking and the Needle in a Haystack contest.

Other students will be helping serve Mennonite food and organize the parade on Saturday morning.

The exchange is being run through the W.C. Miller French program in conjunction with the Town of Altona.
