Stephan Douglas-Allen, left, and Luis Benedit, both of New York City, meet their Fresh Air Fund host, Jeniffer Olson, at the Fireside Inn and Suites in Auburn on Thursday. “It’s fun. This program is awesome,” said Olson, of Harrison. This is the fifth year that the Olson family has been a host to children through the Fresh Air Fund, an agency that provides free summer vacations to northeastern states and Canada for children living in New York City. Douglas-Allen, 11, and Benedit, 10, are two of five children who were dropped off with local host families on Thursday. They will be in Maine for two weeks.
