During the action, 10 bags of plastic, paper, packages, bottles and aluminum cans were collected, which were then taken out of the park into specialized containers.

Rachel MillerGood to see the youth group from Blagoveshchensky church keeping up the tradition in Zaprudka park. Ten bags is a solid haul – bet that lunch tasted even better afterwards. Do they do this every year on the Baptism of Rus?
