We had great meetings with Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland.  The photo above is the meeting in City Hall with officials from Fife. Dunfermline City Director Pauline Mitchell did a magnificent job in setting up the meetings and subsequent tour. More photos at:

Google has provided us a domain email for free, since we are a non profit.  We will create an email address as Board Members request.  The address will be your title or name, followed by @sarasotasistercities.com
The system is similar to gmail. It also provides a way to share documents and photographs.  A little confusing but you can figure it out.

Using the domain email is of course voluntary.  If you do use the email it might make it simpler to use it with a separate web browser - perhaps use the Microsoft browser for your regular email and use Chrome or Firefox for your Sister City email. That way you won't have to log in and out of the two email systems. Or you can choose to forward the Sister City email to your regular account.

A few oft he new emails have started in the Estonian!! language. We don't know why. Great for internationalism but not so good for comprehension. If this happens give me a call at 309 634 5557 and I will help you get it back to English.

Social Networking Report March 2016


Social Networking Report March 2016

We are emailing our members several times each month with notices of events. It is a fine line from informing our membership and sending too many emails. Hopefully we have reached the correct balance. Dave Haralson and I have been splitting the duties. It is a good idea to have two or more people emailing our membership in case on of us is hit by a bus on a Sister Cities trip.
