Four Rotary Exchange students were hosted by Club President, and Royal University Hospital Board Chairman, Bert Ayers (centre), on a tour of the hospital in 1991.

The students, who hailed from Japan, Germany, Argentina and Mexico, were accompanied on the tour by the hospital President and CEO, Tony Dagnone. Over the years, the Rotary Club of Saskatoon has been a strong supporter of Rotary International's Youth Exchange Programme, both in the role of sending, and hosting, participating students.
