Decatur, IL Sister Cities Committee Decatur's Host Families Decatur has hosted many large contingents of visitors, as well as students from both Tokorozawa, Japan and Seevetal, Germany.
Host families enjoy the brief interactions with fascinating people from a variety of walks of life.
Often an exchange is reciprocated. Host families plan events together and enjoy group tours to area attractions, historical sites and special events. Tokorozawa students visit Decatur in July, while the Decatur students are in Japan. They attend school in Decatur and participate in the Fall events such as high school football games, homecoming and Halloween.
