CIEE’s BridgeUSA Celebration Tour – Mackinac Island Event

In 2026, CIEE will continue their celebration of U.S. Department of State’s BridgeUSA international exchange programs that make America safer, stronger, and more prosperous with visits to idyllic Mackinac Island, Michigan, fun-filled Wisconsin Dells, and vibrant Ocean City, Maryland.

In each tour destination CIEE will celebrate host employers and other champions of international exchange who create meaningful cultural exchange for both BridgeUSA Summer Work Travel participants and their American teammates.

The BridgeUSA Summer Work Travel program brings international college students to live and work in the United States during their summer break, helping businesses across America expand and extend the tourism season by an average of 50 days, contributing to billions of dollars to the American economy each year.
