July 2010
Dear Kremenets
friends,
The Kremenets District Research Group Annual Meeting will be held at the IAJGS Conference on Monday, 12 July 2010 from 8:00 to 9:15
am. The 2010 Conference is being held in Los Angeles, California USA, from 10 July
2010 through 16 July 2010. Complete information about the Conference, including
the program schedule is available at http://www.jgsla2010.com/. Check the Conference Schedule
for the room where our meeting will be held.
Sheree and I will provide an update on our membership numbers and we will
discuss the latest developments in our work, including a very exciting new
project that is underway. As time permits, I will do some lookups for you in
our new expanded Revision List database, which, by the time of the Conference
will have about 25,000 entries.
I'll also bring you up-to-date on news about a new housing development in
Kremenets that the municipal government has approved for construction next to the
mass grave site where 10,000 to 12,000 Jews were murdered in August 1942. We
are working to stop, or at least significantly modify, this development.
If you have any items you wish to discuss at the meeting, please contact me (rddpdx@gmail.com) or Sheree
(ssroth@pacbell.net).
On Sunday from 2:00 to 4:30 pm, our Kremenets Group will share a table with the
Volhynia SIG at the "Market Square Fair". Try
to stop by to say hello.
We hope to see you at the meeting and the Market Square Fair.
Ron and Sheree
