City Council Liaison for Lhasa
On 8 January 2008, Council appointed Suzy Ageton to be Council Liaison to BLSCP for two more years. In early 2006, Suzy had succeeded Robin Bohannan as Council Liaison to BLSCP. This liaison represents the Boulder City Council at official functions and keeps the Council aware of important sister city events and activities. We are very pleased with this appointment.

Highlights for 2007
BLSCP continued to seek further funding for its Parasite Medical Program. Future projects will include comprehensive training on diagnosis and treatment of echinococcosis in Tibetan herders and farmers in rural Lhasa Prefecture. Another objective will be scientific surveys of echinococcosis prevalence and ecology in remote prefectures of Tibet Autonomous Region.

BLSCP continued as official sponsor for Namling County Schools Project and Lhasa Kungshon Language School.

BLSCP continued to participate in Boulder Sister City Alliance, which collaborated with City of Boulder on the development of a Sister City Plaza in downtown Boulder. A special dedication event was held on 17 May 2007, along with an evening of fundraising events for Boulder's Sister Cities. Located on the east lawn of the Municipal Building, Sister City Plaza features artistic, stone and metal inlay squares honoring each of Boulder's Sister Cities.
