Dear Mayor Takeuchi:
Thank you very much for your most gracious letter of September 15, 2017.
I'm so glad that your Sumoto students found their visit to Hawai'i County to be an
enriching and enjoyable experience of Hawaiian culture and hospitality. Our students
and the Hilo host families surely cherish the memories of their time with your group.
Please be assured that we in Hawai'i County greatly value these student exchanges
with Sumoto. Your city and our County have mutual ties that will only strengthen over
the years, and you can be sure that you, our Sister City friends, will always be welcome
here.
We look forward to the next opportunity to see you and all of our good friends in
Sumoto.
ha,
