Saline Mayor Brian Marl and City Councillor Jack Ceo are part of a local contingent in Lindenberg, Germany to celebrate 20 years since the two towns "twinned."
In the photo above, Mayor Marl and Lindenberg Mayor Eric Ballerstedt are exchanging gifts, a customary practice when leaders of the sister cities meet.
The mission of the Saline-LIndenberg Friendship committee is to promote the interests of international understanding people the people of the sister cities. Sister cities evolved from President Dwight Eisenhower's People-to-People initiative in 1956. American cities partnered with communities around the world to build relationships that transcend world politics.
Saline's first twinning was with Brecon, Wales. That relationship is recognized with the Bowley Bridge at Mill Pond Park and the Saline Celtic Festival.
On Saturday, friends from Saline and Lindenberg enjoyed a champagne reception, festive speeches with musical accompaniment by the Lindenberg Music School. a three-chorus meal, a dance interlude with Boogie Ratz, and brass music
Saline Oktoberfest, a popular early fall attraction in downtown Saline, began as a celebration of the city's sister-city relationship with LIndenberg.

Thank you to those Council members who support the citizens and the Rec Center.
Please note, the rec center now requires 1/3 to almost 1/2 of its operations be funded by the City of Saline taxpayers. Approximately 10% of our City population uses the facility, while 2/3 of the members are non-resident. It’s time the non City residents of the Saline community pays its fair share.
What happened with the funding for the needed repairs at the Recreation Center? With all of the programs and community services provided at the Recreation Center, the nearby communities spending tens of millions of dollars to build new Recreation Centers, and the number of members/high usage for the Center and part
The mayor and city council love to spend taxpayer dollars frivolously. More and more $$$ into the rec center, that needs to stop. We still don’t have drinkable water and yet the city keeps raising rates. Can’t speak for everyone but I would much rather have clean water than a “lazy river!”
Sorry, Toby Crotty. Do not align to your assessment or thoughts. While nearby communities are spending tens of millions of dollars to build Recreation Centers (because of their value to citizens and communities), Saline is in the fortunate position of already having a very good facility in place which now needs to
You avoided my main point. The rec center is a nice amenity for those that use it. However, it is not a necessity. Clean safe water that we pay exorbitant rates for IS a necessity for EVERYONE!
The unprofessional behavior while in the supposed role of being a journalist when talking to that protester is ridiculous. The incorrect information and “facts” you spewed during the conversation are just par for the course. Thanks for showing up!

I understand the right 4 peaceful protests, why expose children to hate and show disrespect to our flag, what is that teaching the children. As a Korean Veteran I oppose anyone disrespecting our countries FLAG, shame on the protesters,
