Team USA will visit the White House next month.

Olympians and Paralympians who competed in Pyeongchang will make their trip on April 27, said Patrick Sandusky, the U.S. Olympic Committee’s chief external affairs officer.

It’s the first time President Donald Trump will host Team USA at the White House since taking office 14 months ago.

“We’ve had really good response rate to date in terms of RSVPs,” Sandusky said.
