Dear Jennifer-san, Scotty-san,

I'm Kengo Tobita at Hitachi City Hall.
I hope this email finds you well.

As previously mentioned, the Hitachi International Culture Festival was held from October 30th to November 1st.
We held an exhibition introducing our sister cities using the photos you provided.
The visitors stopped to look intently at the captivating photos and we believe we were able to further deepen their understanding and interest in our sister cities.
Please find attached a record of the event.

We would like to continue our wonderful sister city exchange moving forward.
Kind regards,

Kengo Tobita

A Special message from our friends in Wales:

Hi Wales committee friends,

I hope you are all doing well and enjoyed the Summer.
Just wanted to send a note to say that we at the Welsh Government are remembering the four girls and thinking of Birmingham today, sending wishes of strength and peace.
I also wanted to share an article on Wales.com from our commemoration in June. https://www.wales.com/news/united-states/celebrating-60th-anniversary-wales-window-alabama-sixteenth-street-baptist
Look forward to being in touch soon.
