50th Anniversary Trip to Sapporo

In November 2009, PSSCA will lead a delegation from Portland to Sapporo for the Japan side of the celebration. We will be joined in Sapporo by a group of Royal Rosarians, Portland's official city ambassadors. While in Sapporo, we will participate in many events, including a formal renewal of our Sister City relationship on 03 November (Culture Day in Japan) and a rose planting by the Rosarians.

Activities for visitors will include city tours, celebrations with city officials and citizens, available side trips visits to the city's tourist attractions like Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill, the former Hokkaido Government Building, and the picturesque nearby town of Otaru. There will be lots to do and see for all age groups.

Sapporo is a warm and welcoming city, beautiful at any time and especially so during the late Fall. We hope that many from Portland and our surrounding areas will join us in traveling to Sapporo for this unique series of events.

PSSCA has chosen Dai-Ichi International Travel as our agent for Portland's citizen delegation. An UPDATED schedule for the trip can be found here. More information about PSSCAs activities is available here. Please contact Dai-Ichi directly for more information on travel or PSSCA for events in Sapporo.
