In Udarnik (Neukirch), the school director, his assistant, and the history teacher have developed a memorial for victims in seven neighboring villages, as well as a small museum in the school. The director has purchased the former Mennonite Church in an attempt to preserve the historical building and wishes to renovate it.


The Director and several coaches at the Molochansk Sports School, located in the former Halbstadt Credit Union, offer training in gymnastics and various team sports.












The medical clinic in Kirovo (Juschanlee) on the former Johann Cornies estate. Until six years ago the second floor served as a hospital wing. The director wishes to renovate and re-open the hospital facility. The building was built by Heinrich Reimer in 1879.

Hello, I am Glen Ediger, working on a research project. (see info at www.threshingstone.com) I am trying to locate and contact the history teacher in Udarnik (Neukirch) who was involved in the threshing stone monument. I ran across you blog and see that you talked to him. Do you have his name and any contact information. Thanks for any help.
