Welcome to the Olympia-Kato Sister City Association web site. The OKSCA was incorporated as a non-profit in 1981 after a sister city relationship had been agreed upon by the Olympia and Kato (historically Yashiro) town councils.
Since that time, delegations from the two cities have exchanged visits of civic groups, students, teachers, and business leaders. The organization encourages cross-cultural understanding and international friendship through its various projects and visits. The friendship between the two cities is nurtured and sustained by the volunteer work of the Olympia-Kato Sister City Association.
Olympia is very similar to Kato in population and infrastructure thereby making it very suitable for mutual trade, economic partnerships, and cultural exchanges. |
