Miharu, Japan is sister city to Rice Lake, Wisconsin, and visitor
exchanges are not uncommon. As a symbol of the city's friendship with
Miharu, a Japanese garden is being built on the University Wisconsin-
Barron Center. On July 17th three gentlemen (all technical experts of
Japanese gardening & engineering works) from Miharu will be coming to
do the constructions of the garden.
The Japanese Garden will be under construction during Kusakabe's visit.
He is looking forward to his short stay in Rice Lake and will spend a
day working on the garden.
This information was taken from the Rice Lake (Wisconsin) International
Friendship Association newsletter. A contact for more info is Karen
