DINGLE SISTER CITY EVENT - DINGLE VISIT REMEMBERED

Members of the Dingle Ireland Santa Barbara Sister City Committee held a lovely dinner at Pilgrim's Court this month to celebrate their recent visit to Dingle, Ireland where they were hosted by the Mayor of Dingle who sent a follow up letter thanking them for their visit and support of Dingle. Photos of the trip were viewed, along with important trip details shared by members.

The Board of Directors and members of the Dingle, Ireland Sister City Committee enjoyed a delicious roast beef dinner, listened to a letter of thanks read by President Pat Fallin with wishes for continued friendship from the Mayor of Dingle, enjoyed a chronology of great travel photographs by Blas Garza taken during the September trip taken by the Santa Barbara Dingle Sister City Committee to Dingle, Kerry, Dublin, Edinburgh and London, England.

This group of Santa Barbara area residents are very busy promoting Dingle, recruiting new members and sharing information on the charming Irish city near the sea. One lucky raffle ticket holder went home with a copy of the Dingle Cookbook. For information on Santa Barbara Sister City activities visit www.santabarbaragov.org
