Palmdale Sister City

A "People to people"  Program

The Sister City program is a dedication of friendship and understanding
Between peoples of different cultures different attitudes... it is an affirmation
Of one people's goodwill toward another people...it is the Golden Rule applied
To international practice... it is a recognition that we are all brothers in the
Human race...and it is, perhaps, a last hope for peace in our times and for the
Survival of our world.
