Ren's Did you Know ? - The Ontario Sister City Committee

 
 
The Ontario Sister City Committee was founded and organized on July 19, 1975. Ontario's first sister city affiliation occurred on January 18, 1977, when Ontario City Council and the Mayor passed Resolution 8100 officially adopting Brockvill...e, Ontario, Canada, home of the Chaffey Brothers who founded Ontario, California. Since that time, other cities have been chosen because of their similarities to Ontario and their willingness to develop friendships and cultural exchanges. Ontario has formed affiliations with Winterthur, Switzerland and Guamuchil, Los Mochis & Mocorito, Sinaloa, Mexico (1982). Originally formed as a city committee, Ontario Sister Cities became a nonprofit corporation in December 7, 1979, because of its widespread acceptance and grand success.
