The cultural program was started by pupils of the Islamic educational camp, “Krasnai shukertlәre” under the leadership of Zyfa Nureyeva. Also, local amateur groups and guests from Tatarstan Alsu Farahshina, Alina Safiullina and Rail Sheikhutdinov performed with their songs.
In the solemn part with a congratulation of fellow villagers and guests of the village and with words of gratitude to the organizers, the first was the imam of the local mosque, Ildus hazrat Biktimirov. Ramnat Salikhzhanov, Executive Director of RNACNO, as well as heads of the Sechenov district and Krasnoostrovsky village administrations, after their speeches, were awarded the most worthy by Thanksgiving letters. Not far from the stage, young sportsmen competed in raising weights and barbells.
The absolute batyr in the national struggle was the multiple champion of the Sabantuys, master of sports Ramil Nurimanov from Krasnaya Gorka.
