"Of these the most significant projects that we implemented this summer is the project Student Spring in the Caucasus, which was held this year in Adygea. Indeed it was a bright, creative, and patriotic event. Young people from the regions the North Caucasus Federal District and the Transcaucasian were at our creative festival during three days. The closing ceremony of the festival was very memorable -  the patriotic action Candle of Memory when at 4 am all participants of our festival, including the youth, more than 3 thousand of residents of the city lit the candle of memory.

The first contest  of the student ethnic fashion was so in demand. Next time it will be organized as a separate event.

Special excursions were organized for children in order to they could see sightseeings of the North Caucasian republics.
