Meeting Peoria's Mayor
The Friends of Friedrichshafen is a proud supporter of the Peoria Sister City Commission. To further the effort to promote our relationship with our German friends, we visited Peoria's mayor, Jim Ardis, in the grand city council chambers. The mayor and city clerk welcomed our group and expressed warm wishes for a happy visit.
After the meeting, we attended a reception given by the Sister City Commission. Then several of our guests and host families attended the Taste of Peoria -- an event celebrating our city's cuisine, music and entertainment talents.
