The Summit aims to strengthen the peaceful relationship between our two countries by fostering friendship at the grassroots level. With the help of these sponsors, the Japan-America Society of the State of Washington will be able to fund the Summit Opening Ceremony at Tillicum Village on Blake Island and Closing Ceremony at the Hyatt Regency Lake Washington.
