RIPON LOOKING AT A THIRD SISTER CITY

Two years ago, the City of Ripon linked with Opelousas, Louisiana as a sister city. Last year, we did the same with Ripon, England. On Monday, I will ask the Council to link us with Wacuco, Panama, where Ripon native Father Wally Kasuboski has done such wonderful work. We are also considering a fourth sister city in Continental Europe. It is my hope that little things like this can make this a better city and world to live, work and play in. Stay tuned. I will post the official sister city proclamation when it is finished. Father Wally is scheduled to address the Council this Monday night the 26th around 7 PM.
