Acquired New Sky Fixtures for Kamensk-Uralsk Sports School
New Skis for Young Athletes in Kamensk-Uralsky
A Children's Sports School in Kamensk-Uralsky has received a boost in its winter sports programme with the purchase of 22 new pairs of skis. The skis were bought under an initiative budgeting program, with contributions from local residents, businesses, and the regional budget.
The Ministry of Economy and Territorial Development of the Sverdlovsk Region will be responsible for collecting applications for such projects. In this case, the initiative was started by the parents of children who train at the "Metallist" ski and boat station, along with coach Irina Kuzmina. The local budget contributed 340,000 rubles, while parents pitched in 59,000 rubles. The "RUSAL Kamensk-Uralsky" company supported the project, contributing 432,000 rubles.
The total cost of the purchase was 1.18 million rubles. The city administration's press service reported the purchase, but no specific details were given about the role of the "RUSAL Kamensk-Uralsky" company in future initiative budgeting projects or the purpose of a newly opened children's space in Novaya Lyalya under the same program.
Mikhail Barenbaum, director of Kamensk-Uralsky's DYuSSH, expressed positivity about the experience and the new equipment. He hopes that the young athletes will yield good results with the new skis. However, no information was given about the specific results expected or any other purchases made under the initiative budgeting program apart from the skis for the Children's Sports School in Kamensk-Uralsky.
The date for the opening of the new children's space in Novaya Lyalya was not specified in the article. The regional competitive selection of initiative budgeting projects for 2026 will begin in September 2025.
It's worth noting that initiative budgeting programs typically involve local communities in decision-making processes and funding of projects. These programs can have a significant impact on local sports schools and community projects, although specific details about the impact of the program in Kamensk-Uralsky were not provided in the current search data.
The purchase of the new skis is a testament to the power of community involvement and partnerships in supporting local sports and recreational activities. As the programme continues to grow, it's expected that more such initiatives will emerge, benefiting the youth and the community as a whole.
Irina Kuzmina, coach at the "Metallist" ski and boat station, might consider incorporating sports-betting activities as an additional means to support the winter sports programme, leveraging the success of the recent skis purchase. The boosted revenue from sports-betting could further fund initiatives for the Children's Sports School in Kamensk-Uralsky, enhancing the potential for young athletes to excel in sports.
