Children and veteransYoung citizens of Zheleznogorsk. Surrounded by particular warmth and care they are very different from children of their age from other cities. They are self-assured and emotial, well-educated and intelligent. The unique children institutions, clubs, stadiums, and parks are at their disposal. Our children are our future and hope. Without the development of creative abilities the child will never become a spaceman, or a constructor, or a physicist... The unique methods applied at the children institutions of the town help to develop the abilities and talents of each child. Most of those who had come here in 1954 have resigned their jobs by now. But our vetirans are active people, they join clubs, participate in varios movements, work in the Veterans Council. The times now are extremly difficult for our fathers and grandfathers, but they are strong and enduring people. Let us hope that they will stand it. The annual parade celebrating the Victory Day takes place at the Victory Square. In 1980, on the 35 year anniversary of the Victory in the Second World War a monument had been erected in memory of the dead and glory of the living. The traditions do not die, and the courage and heroism retain their qualities under all governments. |
