Thanksgiving in an American Home

Experience the Thanksgiving Holiday with an American Family!

Thanksgiving is one of the major American holidays. It usually means a lot of food and time with family -- and maybe some football. But there is a lot of history in this holiday. In fact, it began well before America was even a country!

This year, Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 27, and USA Homestays wants you to spend the Holiday with a local family. Each family will welcome two or three students into their homes for the Thanksgiving meal and the rest of the fun. The host family will be happy to tell you more about the history of this holiday.

Sign up today and we will contact you a few days before Thanksgiving to let you know who your family is and all the other details. Registration deadline is November 22, but it's always better to sign up early in case we run out of homes. If you want one or two friends to go with you, add their names and contact information to this form. This program is only in the cities in which USA Homestays operates.
