Mayor Mattie Parker and dinner chairs Joanne and David Campbell will lead a crowd of more than 500 through an evening of German cuisine and entertainment as Fort Worth Sister Cities celebrates its 35-year relationship with Trier, Germany. Honorary dinner chairs Helmut and Hilde Horchler will also be recognized.

The dinner will be at 6 p.m. Nov. 3 in the Fort Worth Convention Center Ballroom. View ticket information.

During dinner, global recognitions will be highlighted through awards given to honor businesses, individuals and organizations that make a significant contribution to global understanding, world political stability and international trade or cooperative efforts to solve international health, economic, social or environmental challenges.

This year’s recipients:

  • Fort Worth Zoo, Global Citizens Award.
  • Jacques Marquis, Global Impact Award.
  • Mrs. Renfro’s , Global Nexus Award.
  • Eosera Inc., Elyse Dickerson and Joe Griffin, Global Entrepreneurship Award.

The event is made possible by the Fort Worth Sister Cities Members Circle of Giving, a network of individuals, organizations, corporations and community leaders committed to expanding global relationships for peace and prosperity at home and abroad. Funding and in-kind support from the City of Fort Worth plays a key role in the Sister Cities’ mission, but most work is made possible from public support through the Members Circle of Giving.
