Сapsule

Boris Аleynik, First Secretary of the Zaporizhia Lenin Regional Komsomol Executive Committee shows the contents of the capsule, just 5ook out of the Dneproges museum's wall, on Sunday, October 29, 2000, in Zaporizhia. The capsule was put into the wall on November 7, 1966, on the day when the first stone of the foundation of the Dneproges second turbine hall was put. The capsule contained the appeal of Komsomols of the 60-ies to the youth of 2000. In that appeal the Komsomols of 60-ies called the Komsomol of 2000 to "keep and increase the values, achieved by their fathers and grandfathers". As a token of continuity the Komsomols of 2000 put back the appeal to Komsomols of 2032. The capsule was put back and will be extracted in 2032, when Dneproges will celebrate its 100th jubilee.
