Sister City committee views LB sponsored school slides
More than 60 Long Beach Valparaiso Sister City Committee members viewed slides of Valparaiso Chile at a Whaley Park reception honoring former Peace Corps workers Mrs John Daly of Costa Mesa and Mrs Richard Lohman of Berkeley. The program highlighted a Peace Corps nursery school built with 3000 donated by Long Beach, with sessions starting March 18. The project, begun in fall 1966, received funds in 1967 after a Long Beach delegation visited Valparaiso. Funding included 1000 from schoolchildren. Construction advanced during strikes at the university, with volunteers working long days. The project united Chileans Long Beach and Peace Corps, and the school was named John Kennedy Kindergarten. A Queen Mary visit featured a ceremony at the partially completed school.
