Welcome to the Corning-Kakegawa, Japan Sister Cities!
	The Corning-Kakegawa Sister Cities Association was founded in 1989. Our Sister City relationhip emerged out of the business relationship that was being cultivated between Osuka village and Corning Incorporated. After establishing a branch plant in Osuka, Corning Inc. decided to expand their business relationship into one that united both communities in a more cultural way. For the past sixteen years, our two communities have sponsored annual exchange visits, cultural events focusing on one another's home country, as well as many other activities. In April of 2005, Osuka village merged with Kakegawa city and is now part of Kakegawa. We look forward to many more years of fun, new friends, and bridging cultures through community.
