Want to get some fresh air and do a good deed? Then don your winter gear and get yourself to Tagansky Park this Sunday for a very unique event.
Since the beginning of the winter, Mosgorpark has teamed up with Coca-Cola Hellenic and Sotsiobegom to organize a special program of free ice skating lessons every weekend for kids who wouldn't otherwise take to the ice. With assistance from sports professionals, 55 children between the ages of 12 to 17 from orphanages will spend two hours on the ice this Sunday maneuvering the slippery surface.
Volunteers are warmly welcome to get involved and help the children learn how to skate. Come and bring your skating kids — the weather and ice will be perfect!

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
