Looks like a “100th Anniversary Commemorative Magazine” is coming out too
A commemorative magazine celebrating the 100th anniversary of Nishinomiya’s city administration is apparently set to be published in late March next year〜😆🎉
What will be in the “Nishinomiya City 100th Anniversary Commemorative Magazine”?
- 100 Years of Nishinomiya History: A look back at events from the 100 years since the city system was established, with a timeline and rare photos
- Congratulatory Messages for Nishinomiya City: Special messages from well-known people with ties to the city (Daiki Hyodo, Iko Idogawa, former Hanshin Tigers manager Okada, Teruaki Sato, and Kaito Shimomura)
- Rediscovering Nishinomiya’s Appeal!: Features “favorite things about Nishinomiya” and rankings of local specialties based on a resident survey
- Carrying Children’s Dreams into the Future: A feature on children’s dreams for the future, including elementary school students’ city council experience and junior and senior high school students’ meeting with the mayor
- Of course, Nishinomiya City’s character “Miyatan” and his creator “Yoshikazu Takai” will also appear!
The commemorative magazine will apparently be published in three versions: a “booklet edition,” “digest edition,” and “web edition.” The booklet edition will be available to view at libraries and other locations〜

Finally
By the way, this crowdfunding campaign uses the furusato tax donation system! You can receive a tax deduction based on the amount you donate, and even though it’s furusato tax, Nishinomiya residents can participate too😊 If you think it might be nice to have your name printed in the commemorative magazine, this is a rare chance that only comes once every 100 years, so why not give it a try〜?
