June 17, Vitebsk / Olga Bogacheva - BELTA /. The best foresters of the Vitebsk region will be named on June 18 in the Polotsk district, the Vitebsk Production Forestry Association (VPFA) informed a BELTA correspondent. The competition will be held in a specially designated logging area of the Dretunskoye forestry. 60 best representatives of this profession from all forestry enterprises of the region will take part in it. Throughout the day, competitors will fell and saw trees, assemble and disassemble their main working tool - a chainsaw. The title of "Best Forester of the Vitebsk Region" will be awarded to the one who does it faster, more accurately and professionally than others. During the competition, three best teams will also be determined, each consisting of two adult foresters and one junior under 24 years of age. The VPFA noted that the honor of opening the tournament by raising the flag is given to last year's champion, forester Igor Kostyuk from the Begomlskoye forestry. His main rival will be Alexander Myakhovsky from the Glubokskoye forestry, a participant in four international competitions. However, young foresters gaining experience from other forestry enterprises will also provide worthy competition to these recognized professionals. -0-
