Good thing they do it every year. Our family goes to similar meetings in Prešov, where the children learn that it is possible to have fun even without alcohol.

Here in Banja Luka, we gather every year for similar meetings after the celebration. Children really socialize better when there is no drink, and we adults also breathe easier. Thanks for doing it regularly.

We also have such rallies in Yaroslavl, but not every year. It’s good that in Molitovka they regularly take care of this matter - the children really then choose for themselves how to relax without a bottle. Thank you for writing.

We have almost no such regular gatherings in New York, so I envy your Yaroslavl and Molitovka. It’s good that children then decide for themselves how to spend time without alcohol - my daughter also noticed this as a student. What do you usually remember most at these rallies, the songs or the hikes?

Ольга Лебедева

At our gatherings in Molitovka, the most memorable things are the hikes - last year the children and I walked through the forest around the lake, picked mushrooms and then cooked soup together. We also sing songs, but they are done after dinner around the fire. And in New York, what do young people usually choose instead of alcohol, sports or something religious?
