The Editor,
Have you, your family or organization participated in an activity with Richmond's Sister City, Wakayama City, Japan?
You might have participated in a school exchange, homestay, cadet or band exchange, or a judo, basketball or soccer exchange since 1973.
You might have been a student or parent, sponsor or a host during our almost 40 years of twinning.
If you have, we would like to invite you to a Community Tea, hosted by the Richmond Sister City Committee, to meet Wakayama Mayor Kenichi Ohashi and members of their council to reminisce and share your photos, stories and memories.
The Sister City Committee would like to capture these special stories that have contributed to such a meaningful relationship between our two cities, ones that will inspire our youth in the future.
Please join us for tea on Monday, Nov. 5, from 3: 30 to 4: 30 p.m. at Steveston-London secondary school library, 6600 Williams Rd.
For more information, call 604-2764147
Sylvia Gwozd Chair of Richmond Sister City Committee
