Do you know a student who may be interested in traveling to our Sister City,
Shizuoka City/Kambara, Japan next summer?
The Sister City partnership is 35 years strong and is an exciting opportunity for students in grades 7-12 in Shelby County who are interested in a cultural exchange.
The 2024 student trip is planned for mid-June and will include approximately 5-7 days in Shizuoka City/Kambara as a homestay experience as well as a few days in
Tokyo.
Students and parents who are interested in learning more about the
Sister City program and the 2024 summer trip should plan to attend an
information meeting on Sunday, November 12 at the Shelbyville City Hall in the Council Chambers at 4:00 p.m.
A link to the 2024 SCIRC Student Application Packet can be found on the City
of Shelbyville’s website at www.cityofshelbyvillein.com under Japanese Sister
City. Applications should be completed and submitted by January 15, 2024
along with a $250.00 deposit.
