During a regular weekly briefing, the Moscow Region governor, Andrey Vorobyov, outlined the summer health campaign now rolling out across the region. The discussion brought together the heads of regional government and the urban districts to review preparation steps, safety measures, and the logistics required to ensure a smooth season for young residents. The governor emphasized that the plan is designed to deliver accessible and well‑structured recreation opportunities for children while maintaining stringent oversight of every activity involved in the program.
In this year’s initiative, authorities expect to reach 109 suburban communities and nearly 1,000 summer camps that host children from the Moscow region. The project aims to provide vacation experiences for roughly 180,000 youngsters. A strong focus is placed on careful verification and oversight to guarantee that every placement is appropriate and secure. In addition to standard camper programs, officials announced a special arrangement to organize summer recreation for children aged 7 to 15 who are part of families affected by military actions in recent years. A notable component of the plan includes 3,000 free day trips to the Litvinovo camp in the Naro-Fominsk district, reserved for families of active participants who have served on the front lines, reflecting the region’s commitment to supporting those families during difficult times.
The governor also highlighted inclusivity as a core principle of the campaign. Children from low‑income households, large families, users with disabilities, and orphans will have access to either free trips or a compensation program that makes summer camp experiences more affordable. This broadened access is intended to reduce financial barriers and ensure that a broad cross‑section of young residents can benefit from seasonal rest and constructive activities away from home, while families in need can count on predictable support.
Moreover, the program extends beyond the Moscow region itself, with a coordinated option that allows children to rest in four camps located in the Krasnodar Territory. A total of 4,600 coupons have been prepared to cover these placements, contributing to a wider regional network of safe and supervised recreational facilities for families seeking summer opportunities across the country. The plan sets a clear deadline for accepting camp placements, with a goal to have all allocations finalized by late May, ensuring that families have adequate time to prepare for the season and that operations can be staged efficiently across districts.
Lyudmila Bolataeva, the regional minister responsible for social development, explained that the program encompasses a full service package. She noted that authorities are implementing a comprehensive safety and welfare audit for all participating sites. The evaluation covers the quality of meals, access to medical care, measures to control and prevent tick‑borne risks in outdoor environments, and the health protection protocols for staff and campers, including adherence to vaccination and disease prevention guidelines. This structured review aims to uphold high standards of safety while enabling children to enjoy a diverse range of activities in supervised settings.
Within the region, several districts stand out for offering the most extensive entertainment options for young visitors. Pushkino is noted for hosting the largest cluster of recreational spaces, with sixteen distinct entertainment areas listed, followed by Istra with twelve and Kolomna with eleven. In addition to these hubs, the campaign highlights celebrated camps that have gained popularity for their programs and facilities. The Enjoy Camp in Domodedovo, the Litvinovo camp in the Naro-Fominsk district, and the Partisan Camp in Kolomna are among the top choices that families consider when planning summer stays for their children. The emphasis on variety and accessibility reflects a deliberate effort to provide engaging, age‑appropriate experiences across multiple locations and settings, ensuring that families can find options that fit their schedules and preferences.
