At the end of May seventeen children with three mothers from three foster families of Zaporozhye region went on a hiking trip to Western Crimea.

Our tour started from Bakhchisarai, which we left to arrive to Zalesnoye village. It was the starting point of our route. Children were enjoying picturesque views even before coming to the first camp point at Pyataya Balka.

The second day brought the joy of rope swinging and bathing in the cool water of Chernorechensky canyon. Participants of the tour made friends and felt like one big family!

And finally we arrived to the seaside!!! Children were delighted to see waves. Now they had a chance to enjoy the great views of the Laspi Bay, which is one of the southern points of the Crimean Peninsula. Our time was full of fun and various activities, so nobody wanted to leave!

When it was time to go back home, children bathed in the sea and in the evening, having arrived to Simferopol, we were all remembering the funny moments of our tour, enjoyed the company of each other and were already dreaming about the next trip or hiking tour with our Klubok club!

This trip has been organized due to the donations made by our supporters. On behalf of the foster children we would like to say thank you to all those who participated in arranging this tour and fundraising to make it happen.

Do not forget that you also have an opportunity to support the Klubok project. One of the things you can do is buy the products which will be useful in hiking trips and bring them to the Happy Child Foundation: pasta, tea, cereals, tinned products, sweets, vegetable oil, tourist equipment, etc. Non-material ideas are very welcome, too!

Children will be thankful for any of your help and support!!!

Klubok members will be glad to answer any of your questions.
