Airplane, fountains, registry office: what else will appear in Senno for the regional "Dazhynki"

Construction and city improvement works have been ongoing since spring and are now nearing completion. By September, it is planned to commission the new registry office building with all its facilities, and a fully modernized physical culture and sports complex with a stadium – these are the main facilities that the city has been most anticipating. "In total, work is being carried out at 188 sites. The reconstruction of the House of Culture and the district museum of local lore is almost complete – we are commissioning them in August. Only the sign needs to be placed at the school of arts, and the library has also been renovated. Work continues on secondary schools No. 1 and 2 and two kindergartens. A total of Br900 thousand has been allocated from the district budget for the listed cultural and educational facilities. Additionally, the central district hospital has been completely reconstructed," said Zoya Fomina, Deputy Chairman of the District Executive Committee for Social Affairs. Most of the listed buildings are located in the city center around the main square, which has been transformed into a park, also becoming one of the key improvement sites. Paved paths, which will soon frame flowerbeds and thuja alleys, lead to a memorial sign in honor of Matryona Markevich, the creator of the ornament on the state flag.

By the way, it is here, according to Zoya Fomina, that it is planned to hold the festival of national symbols for the first time during "Dazhynki". Further in the park, a new fountain has been erected practically from scratch, and a complex of children's playgrounds has been created. Meanwhile, the new registry office building includes an entire architectural ensemble with a large fountain and the sculptural composition "Newlyweds" by Vitebsk sculptor Ivan Kazak, which will soon be delivered from the regional center. The registry office will serve as a kind of gateway to the updated city park. Paths are currently being laid here, landscaping has already begun, and benches have been installed. At the end of the park, there will be a site dedicated to internationalist soldiers. "BTR and tank models have already been installed here, and...

will be a chapel and a sculpture. It is being cast in Minsk.

Other samples of military equipment, provided by the Ministry of Defense, are installed throughout the park in the open air. And recently, it allocated two aircraft to us - Su-24 and Su-27. They were just brought in parts today. This area will be dedicated to our countryman, Hero of the Soviet Union Alexander Gorovets," explained Zoya Fomina. As Natalya Vizner, head of the architecture and construction department of the district executive committee, added, the total financial investment from the district budget will be about Br25 million, and some of the facilities were included in the regional investment program. Not only social facilities are being updated, but also residential buildings, retail outlets, industrial and administrative buildings, and streets are being improved.

"Our housing and communal services and a contractor from Vitebsk are repairing 31 apartment buildings, mainly from the priority list; electrical installation work is included in the current repairs in some places. The adjacent territories are being improved. We are carrying out capital repairs of central roads with a pedestrian zone and the installation of new fences and lighting poles. The entrance to the city has now become "smooth" - the best asphalt is laid there," added Natalya Vizner. Also, in the courtyards, territories have been designated for organizations of the district, which, on a patronage basis, are engaged in landscaping and creating playgrounds. Entrepreneurs are also providing assistance. In short, all reserves are involved in bringing order. External forces are also being attracted. Thus, since July, Senno has been declared the site of the regional youth construction project. Its official opening took place today on the central square and was dedicated to Student Detachment Day (August 1).

"Since July 11, the "Tornado" detachment of 14 people, mainly students of the Vitebsk State Technical College, has been working in the city. Also, a student detachment named after Hero of the Soviet Union A. Gorovets has been formed from 10 Senno residents, which is just starting landscaping work. The customer is Senno Housing and Communal Services," explained Viktor Glushin, first secretary of the regional committee of the BRSM. He solemnly presented the members of both detachments with certificates of participants in the regional.

youth construction projects, and commanders - symbolic "permits" for the work semester. He also added that it is pleasant to hear flattering feedback about the work of young people in Senno. In particular, the detachment's curator, "Tornado," the head of the landscaping and greening department, Valery Roga, noted the responsible approach and diligence of the guys, who continue to work even after 8 p.m. and complete tasks with high quality. The detachment is involved in painting fences along Michurin Street - the entrance gates to the city from the Vitebsk side. And after all the planned 7.5 thousand sq. m will shine with fresh paint, there may be other work for the guys - they have already proven themselves, and extra hands will not hurt in this large city-wide construction project.
