The Burbank Sister City Committee is now accepting applications from
high school students wishing to broaden their horizons by
participating in the cultural student exchange program.
Through the Sister City program, Burbank students have an
opportunity to spend two weeks in Ota, Japan, living with a Japanese
family to see firsthand how they live in that part of the world and
to promote communication, goodwill and cultural awareness.
Applicants must be high school freshman, sophomore or junior
students and a Burbank resident. All three locations of the Burbank
Public Library will have applications on hand, as well as the career
offices at John Burroughs, Burbank, Providence and
Bellarmine-Jefferson high schools, and Village Christian School. The
deadline for returning completed application forms is Oct. 22, and
can be returned to the Burbank Central Library, 110 N. Glenoaks
Blvd., Burbank High School or Burroughs High School.
For further information, contact Burbank Public Library
Administration at 238-5551.
