San Luis Potosi, Mexico
(Since October 1980)
Located 225 miles northwest of Mexico City, San
Luis Potosi is famous for its beautiful old churches,
colonial architecture and Mexican tradition.
Since Tulsa's affiliation with San Luis Potosi, there have
been many exchanges, such as the Tulsa fire truck in exchange
for the Casa del Agua fountain now located in Centennial
Park.
Most recent exchanges:
In January 2005, SLP Partnership Chair Ana Ramon Garcia
participated in the inaugural flight by American Airlines
to launch their direct flights from Dallas to SLP. During
her visit, she met with Governor Leal and Mayor Pedroza.
In June 2004, Tulsa Fire Chief Allen La Croix represented
the City of Tulsa and the Tulsa Fire Department when he
visited SLP. A strong relationship has developed between
the two fire departments over the years.
Annual youth exchanges and adult exchanges are an established
part of this partnership. Tulsa's Eisenhower International
School has the United States' only elementary
international exchange program in its relationship with
San Luis Potosi's Instituto Cervantes.
