Sister City Agreement with Town of Isola del Liri Signed
Today, the Sister City Agreement with the Town of Caledon and the Town of Isola del Liri in Italy was signed. The Town sent a delegation to Isola del Liri in August 2022 and continues to develop the relationship between the two towns.
"This cultural exchange is a wonderful opportunity both municipalities can benefit from in a sister city relationship," said Mayor Annette Groves. "This twinning agreement will grow our public art, heritage and tourism."
Ward 5 Councillor Tony Rosa also worked on bringing the sister city relationship with Isola del Liri to Caledon. Sister city relationships offer economic development, cultural and tourism benefits. With a sister city, Caledon can internationally showcase its communities and local economy.
Three initiatives will be the focus for the partnership that align with existing projects in 2023:
- Public Art
- Celebration of Italian Heritage
- Tourism Marketing Campaign
