50 is the new 30? Is that it? In LA, I was part of the Los Angeles Sister Cities 50th Anniversary Kick-Off Fundraiser. It was a rockin’ and rollin’ party that featured Captain Cardiac and the Coronaries (see picture). Hundreds of citizens from all 25 of LA’s sister city committe
e and a few stars were on hand. The event honored the two oldest LA sister cities: Nagoya, Japan and Eliot, Israel – both 50 years old this year. Later this spring 150 member delegation from Japan will visit LA to celebrate.
It was a great event, to honor the 50th Anniversary. As always, I am energized when I speak to local citizen diplomats about their experiences, their passion, their commitment to our work, and their stories.
Los Angles Sister Cities program doesn’t look a day over 30. It’s LA – would you expect anything else?
