Peoria Mayor Plans Trip To Botswana

The mayor of Peoria and other local officials are planning a trip to Africa this February.

Mayor Jim Ardis is making the trip to Botswana to discuss a possible sister-city relationship. The mayor says the idea came after Botswana's ambassador to the United States visited Peoria twice last year. Ardis says the ambassador invited him to bring a delegation from Peoria to Botswana.

The trip is scheduled from Feb. 18 to 23. Peoria already has sister-city relationship with cities in China, Ireland and Germany.
