SMYRNA, TN - Today, RoundTable hosts Wayne Blair and Rick Hall learn about the Sister City Program that Smyrna is involved in, as is a city located in Japan. Guests are Fran Dunn and Mark Michelson.
In 1991, the Town of Smyrna entered into a Sister City agreement with Zama City, Japan. At that time, Zama was home to a Nissan auto manufacturing facility. The first visit to Zama included adult municipal and community leaders, but soon thereafter, the Town Council determined that a student exchange program would serve the youth of Smyrna well and provide an excellent opportunity for a cultural exchange between students of both communities.
