What some years ago looked like a possibility of sisterhood between cities from different countries with different cultures, beliefs and traditions is at present confirmed already as a spectacular reality thanks to the effort and devotion of some people and through those exchanges that have been taken place and those that are about to be carried out.
Some day in the future our societies will acknowledge that the sisterhood between cities such as Puerto Vallarta and Highland Park, contribute as a source of inspiration for nations to unite in such a way that no type of borders can interfere. Meanwhile let's enjoy what we are experiencing and let’s delight in the concerts and presentations offered from the heart by our brothers and sisters from Highland Park during this occasion.
Everything is prepared to receive our brothers and sisters from Highland Park.
