 The Russian Government has now GIVEN us 2-1/2 acres on which to build a new home!
Some said it would never happen, but it did. Along with title to the land comes the right to build without restriction and the possibility of an additional 17-1/2 acres in the future. "We think they saw the efforts with the program for alcholic teens and after school care for children and realized that we were serious" said the Chairman.
