The community of Putzbrunn has recognized the work of local volunteers.
She even awarded the Citizens' Medal twice.
Putzbrunn - At the volunteer reception in the fully occupied community center, Mayor Edwin Klostermeier (SPD) once again honored 30 Putzbrunners after a long Corona break.
28 each received a small gift, Georg Krypczyk and Eduard Fritz were even awarded the Citizens' Medal for their outstanding commitment.
Between braised beef, fried char or pasta in gorgonzola radicchio cream, Klostermeier honored the citizens, accompanied by music from the “Trio Aufwind”.
“Without volunteering, little would work in our society; volunteering is by no means a given,” emphasized the town hall boss.
“We have to reward those who are so committed to our society.”
The first group was the volunteer Ukraine Helpers Circle, Juliane Bollow, Petra Först, Anett Frank, Petra Fuchs, Meltem Hajek, Susanne Jakob, Oksana Pfefferkorn, Kordula Rosenberger, Rita Schmelzer and Jirina Krypczyk from Neighborhood Help.
“Two years after the start of the war in Ukraine, there is no end in sight, countless houses, apartments and entire towns have been destroyed - no one can go back.
They continue to help these refugees enormously today,” said Klostermeier.

Erhard Rosenberger was honored as a “good soul in the Behncke settlement”, where he spontaneously looks after children, sometimes for several days.
As a death companion, he takes care of all formalities after death, is a school helper, a founding member of the GPP, a volunteer sexton and a member of the parish council.
Gertraud Fromberger is a school helper.

Ilse Liebmann has been involved in neighborhood assistance and in the parish of St. Stephan since 1990, was chairwoman of the parish council and campaigned for the preservation of ecumenical services.
Michael Adamski, Michael Schultz and Carola Drischberger have been active in the Putzbrunn volunteer fire department and the fire department association for 25 years and have taken on numerous positions there.
Antonio Giglioli and Florian Himmelsbach were honored on behalf of the Putzbrunn boys' club, a club "that is distinguished not only by putting up the maypole, but also by its involvement in community life."
Peter Herbst founded the Putzbrunn allotment garden association in 1987 and has been chairman several times since then.
Markus Vossebürgen has been informing the Putzbrunners in detail about the weather every month since 2012.
Gernot Rossmanith, Ulrike Strobl, Klaus Vollstädt and Doris Winter invested thousands of hours of work restoring the water tower in Oedenstockach.
Georg Krypczyk and Eduard Fritz were awarded the Putzbrunn community's citizens' medal.
Krypczyk was chairman of the FWG Putzbrunn, played an important role in the parish council in the construction of the ecumenical parish center and sat on the parish council for a long time.
“Above all, he has made a name for himself among the Putzbrunner Stockschützen, he has been chairman since 1993, and the original 22 members have become 52,” praised Klostermeier.
Eduard Fritz was also on the parish council from 1993, for the FWG and the CSU on the parish council.
