[Strategic-Cities] Oak RIdge - Obninsk Sister City Partnership

[Ken Luckmann]

The Oak Ridge, Tn USA - Obninsk, Kaluga Region, Russia Sister City
Partnership is pleased to be included in this project.

City Councilman Jerry Kuhaida (former Oak Ridge Mayor) presented Obninsk
with a duplicate of our "Best Overall Program" Award for 2000 (for cities
under 50,000) from Sister Cities International during a recent visit to
Obninsk.

We are in the process of planning activities with Obninsk for 2002 - our
10th Anniversary Year as sister city partners.

We hope to participate in the "Open World" Russian Leadership Program in
2002 with proposals to include:
1) Teenage substance abuse and co-dependency programs
2) City Leadership Programs
3) Economic Development Programs

Please watch our web site at www.korrnet.org/ortnscso for updated
information on our 2002 programs!
