Dear All,

Please excuse my long silence, I had some health issues, now all
happily resolved. I would like to encourage those of you who are able,
to join one of the work-camps. I know that both ASF and SVIT Ukraine
will be glad to have you. The work which will be done at the cemetery
this summer, will be easier than it was during the previous summers.
The major clearing of sapling trees, bushes and vines should be finished
and I expect that most of the work will consist of hand-drilling holes
into the stumps of trees and bushes and painting those with herbicides.
No widespread spraying of herbicides.

 From my own experience, I can say that the people who participate
in these work-camps, are friendly, pleasant and a delight to be with.

Purim Sameach,

Mimi
