A Message from the President
2024 has started with such momentum and excitement for the CCSCC! We were honored to have hosted the February Uruapan delegation visit to Culver City to mark our 60 years of friendship and sister-city relations! Uruapan, Mexico was and always will be Culver City’s first sister city! We are grateful for our partnership with the Culver City Historical Society, Senior Center, and Teen Center that helped make this delegation visit a success! The CCSCC is planning for more excitement and community member engagement in 2024!
In May, the CCSCC will receive a Kaizuka delegation focusing on the restoration of the Kaizuka Meditation Garden gifted to Culver City 50 years ago in 1974! To welcome our guests, we will be hosting garden activities for our members and friends to connect.
In the summer of 2024, we are resuming our summer youth exchange programs, welcoming Kaizuka youth to Culver City, and sending Culver City youth to Iksan City! On behalf of the CCSCC, we are very appreciative to the Culver City community and our sister cities around the world for their ongoing interest and support as we strive to strengthen our bonds locally and internationally for the present and future generations! Please email info@culvercitysistercity.org to request more information about how you can get involved, become a member, and make friends around the world!
Sincerely,
Lisa Saperston
