In memoriam: Sjaak van Zundert, oprichter van Trekker-Trek Etten-Leur.

Zijn handen hebben voor ons gewerkt,

zijn hart heeft voor ons geklopt,

zijn ogen hebben ons tot het laatst gezocht.

Woensdag 20 september jl. is, onze vader en opa, Sjaak van Zundert plotseling overleden. Sjaak is de oprichter van Stal ’t Sander en Trekker-trek Etten-Leur. Zonder Sjaak zou Trekker-Trek Etten-leur niet zijn uitgegroeid tot het evenement dat het nu is. Dit jaar vieren we de 25 ste wedstrijd bij Stal 't Sander. In onze gedachten is hij erbij. We zijn trots op hem en dankbaar dat we zijn werk mogen voortzetten.

Donderdag 28 september 2023 nemen we, om 10.30 uur, afscheid van hem in de aula van De Drie Zwanen van het crematorium Zegestede in Roosendaal. Aansluitend aan de dienst is er gelegenheid tot persoonlijk condoleren bij Stal ’t Sander in Etten-Leur. Belangstellende zijn welkom bij het afscheid en/of het persoonlijk condoleren.

We vinden het fijn om reacties en herinneringen te ontvangen via de online gedenkplaats https://www.memori.nl/gedenkplaats/sjaak-van-zundert

History of Volgograd Oblast

Since the early 1240s, the Lower Volga region became part of the Golden Horde state founded by the Mongolian khan Batu. In the 13th-14th centuries, along the Volga and Akhtuba, there were numerous settlements and major urban centers, the population grew significantly, the local merchants established trade links with Russian principalities, the Italian republics, Egypt, Iran, Central Asia, India, and China.

In the first half of the 15th century, the Golden Horde broke up into a number of independent states including the Kazan and Astrakhan khanates. In the middle of the 16th century, they were conquered by the troops of the Russian Tsar Ivan the Terrible. From this time, colonization and economic development of this region by Russian settlers began.

From the second half of the 16th century, a system of fortress towns was created in the Volga region, built to protect the southeastern borders of the Russian state. The fortress of Tsaritsyn (Volgograd), founded in 1589, was one of these outposts.

Peter the Great visited Tsaritsyn three times. According to his plan, in the 1730s, there was a reconstruction of the Tsaritsyn fortress and the construction of the Tsaritsyn sentry line, which contributed to the settlement of the lands along the rivers of Medveditsa, Ilovl, Volga, and Akhtuba.

More Historical Facts…

In 1765, as a result of two manifestoes of Catherine the Great, who invited people from abroad to settle in Russia, the first foreigners appeared in the region. They were granted a number of benefits, including exemption from recruitment and taxes for 30 years. After it, more than 100 German colonies appeared along the banks of the Volga River.

In the late 18th century, when the Crimea and the Kuban became parts of the Russian Empire, the borders of the state moved far to the south. The Tsaritsyn sentry line was abolished, the Volga Cossack army was liquidated, and the town lost its military-strategic importance. In 1798, Tsaritsyn became a district town of the Saratov province.

Until the second half of the 19th century, the economy of the region was represented exclusively by the agrarian sector (growing grain crops, melon growing), cattle breeding as well as fishing and hunting. In the 1860s-1870s, with the construction of railways, Tsaritsyn turned into the largest transit center of the southeast of the Russian Empire.

In the last quarter of the 19th - early 20th centuries, Tsaritsyn became one of the largest industrial centers of the Volga region. In 1880, the oil industrial town of Nobel was built, which later grew into the largest for the time oil industry complex. The merchants of Tsaritsyn called their town Russian Chicago.

In the late 1920s and throughout the 1930s, industry was the leading branch of the local economy. Old factories were modernized and new enterprises were opened. In April 1925, the city was renamed Stalingrad. Stalingrad oblast, formed in 1936, occupied one of the leading places in the economy of the USSR, and Stalingrad became a major industrial, scientific and cultural center, the southern capital of the country.

During the Second World War, the Stalingrad battle took place on the territory of the region, which played an important role in the defeat of Nazi Germany. As a result of fierce fighting, the city was turned into ruins.

Among the largest economic projects implemented on the territory of the region in the post-war period: the Volga-Don Shipping Canal, the Volzhskaya HPP, aluminum, metalworking and chemical plants, light and food industry enterprises.

In 1961, after the condemnation of Stalin’s cult of personality, Stalingrad was renamed to Volgograd, and the region, respectively, became Volgograd oblast.
