Gravel thieves. Someone stole gravel in 2025 with a wheel loader in a protected area "Restoration of the Sand Martin breeding site". The special swallows are gone. Any police station will accept a report.

The almost 50-year-old nature trail from the GDR era near Klein Nemerow is getting a kind of refresher course. Together with "interested citizens of Groß Nemerow", Jürgen Langmann has created a field of glacial erratics with stones on site. And it will be further improved.

The memorial stone below the observation tower commemorates the first men's choir of the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, "Arion" (Arion = mythical singer of antiquity), founded in 1829. The choir often met on the small platform at the edge of Behmshöhe for singing events and folk festivals. On the occasion of the choir's 100th anniversary, this boulder from the Fünfeichen field was ceremoniously erected here. The inscription reads: Arion 1829 - 1929 Free in song, always German and faithful. November 29, 1929
