SUSU Sports and Recreation Complex Celebrates Its Anniversary

On September 14th Olimp Sports and Recreation Camp, Berezka Children’s Camp and Nauka Recreation Camp celebrate their 60th anniversary. On this occasion festivities will be held at the complex.

Every summer, for 60 years now the recreation complex of South Ural State University has been inviting everyone to take a break from the city, work, studying and daily commotion by immersing oneself into the special atmosphere of unity and warmth. Berezka Children’s Camp, Olimp Sports and Recreation Camp for students, and Nauka Recreation Camp for the faculty are united into one space tied together by bright ideas and traditions. The recreation complex is located in one of the most picturesque corners of South Urals – on the shore of Lake Bolshoy Sunukul, in the wooded area of Nepryakhino settlement of Chebarkul District of the Chelyabinsk Region.

The celebration festivities on the occasion of the camps’ anniversary will be held for SUSU students and employees, as well as for the recreation complex’s staff. Each camp will have their own entertainment program, the theme of which will be related to the specifics of the recreation camp itself. The organization work will be held jointly with the specialists of the SUSU Creativity Center.

“Before, students who came to the camps, used to live not in cabins but in tents. Mostly those were athletes since their annual training camps located namely on this territory. I wanted to mark the beginning of the complex establishment at the coming celebration,” says Deputy Head of the Extracurricular Activities Department, Camp Director Veronika Livonchik.

Student days is a bright part of life. For some people it means meeting friends for life, and for someone else – even their first love. That is why the organizers are planning to picture the diverse and event-packed life of students in the unofficial part of the festivity.

Veronika Livonchik shares on what awaits the event’s guests.

“Many honoured guests will be invited to the celebration of the anniversary of the sports and recreation complex. The festivities will start in Berezka Camp, will then shift to Olimp, and will continue on the beach of Nauka Camp. There, SUSU Rector Aleksandr Shestakov will award certificates of acknowledgement to those people who made big contribution to the complex’s activity.”

For 60 years now the complex has been a recreation spot not only for students, but also for SUSU employees, often with their little children. The succession of generations gives hope that Berezka Children’s Camp, Olimp Sports and Recreation Camp and Nauka Recreation Camp will keep making their guests happy for years to come, and will leave only the best memories in their hearts. In this context, Deputy Head of the Extracurricular Activities Department Veronika Livonchik shares the prospects for development of the sports and recreation complex.

“We’d like to keep improving our equipment infrastructure. There’re many athletes among the campers. And technically speaking we have a lack of training spaces. For instance, we could make a shed over the training ground, so that our wrestlers could bring pads and train on them here. And we’d like to improve equipment of the grounds for other sports as well.”

The celebration festivities will be held on September 14th on the territory of the sports and recreation complex. Beginning at 12:00.
