Since 1973, there has been an annual stone sculpture contest, with the winner being added to the display outside the town hall. The sports center's AstroTurf pitch, laid in 1993, was the first in the prefecture. The success of the town's hockey club dates back to 1970, and since then both the town and high school have a constantly strong team. The high school always places highly in the all-Japan inter-high championships.
