Head of METROPOL Group, Deputy of Eravninskiy District Municipal Entity of the Republic of Buryatia Mikhail Slipenchuk has initiated recreation of over 20 children from Eravninskiy District (Ozerniy, Khorga and Isinga villages) aged from 8 to 15 in Enkhaluk sports and health camp on the shore of Lake Baikal. This is the first visit here for many of the youngsters, as they have never left their villages for vacations before.

“Environmental education should start at an early age. This is how this idea started up: to gather children, to open their eyes to a new world, to teach them to feel pride in themselves and their country. It was important for us to ensure that the children would not just go to a pioneers’ camp to have rest, but would replace their narrow geographical perception with a broad one and realize that they are citizens of a great country and live near a legendary lake”, said Mikhail Slipenchuk commenting on Summer in Enkhaluk.

The agenda of the children’s stay in the camp included daily Easy English classes. They also had Tae Kwon Do training, played soccer and even practiced ball joggling.
“I’ve had no idea that this is possible – that the deputy would send us here for vacations. I like everything here. We’re well fed, and we had a royal night yesterday dancing and burning a fire till one a.m.”, says 14-year-old Egor Anaev from Ozerniy village describing his Summer in Enkhaluk.

The program for the children from Ozerniy, Khorga and Isinga villages is scheduled for 12 days.
