FOXX MEETS WITH CLEMMONS RESIDENT DEPARTING FOR YEAR-LONG YOUTH EXCHANGE IN GERMANY

Congresswoman Virginia Foxx and Kileigh Browning of Clemmons Meet in Foxx’s Office to Discuss Kileigh’s Expectations for the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange Program.

 

Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) met Tuesday with Clemmons, N.C. resident Kileigh Browning in advance of Kileigh’s departure to Germany as one of seventy-five American students selected to participate in the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange.

 

“Kileigh Browning certainly has a year of adventure and excitement ahead of her,” Congresswoman Foxx said. “I congratulate her on her selection to the competitive Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange Program. Clemmons and the entire 5th Congressional District should be proud to have Kileigh serving as our local ambassador in Germany.”

 “I feel that this trip will enhance my views of environmental conservation,” Kileigh Browning wrote in a letter to Foxx. “I have always enjoyed being active outdoors and look forward to doing the same in the Bavarian Alps…I will of course miss my family and friends, summer movie nights at the Lewisville Town Square, and Sunday afternoon lunches at Time to Eat in Clemmons. I plan to share these memories with my German hosts so that they are able to see just how proud I am to be from such a welcoming and family-oriented community.”

 Kileigh Browning is a 2013 Elon University graduate with bachelor’s degrees in environmental and ecological science and statistics. She graduated from West Forsyth High School in 2009.
