In the village of Michurino, near Astana, a solemn opening ceremony was held for the "ALASH CAMP" summer camp, launched on the basis of the “Batyrlar” Military-Patriotic Center. The event was attended by members of the “Zhas Bürkіt” club of the National Guard, servicemen of security agencies, and honored guests.

The servicemen of the National Guard presented a vibrant cultural and military program. Soloists from the Song and Dance Ensemble performed patriotic songs, and the Exemplary Band Orchestra impressed the audience with heroic and triumphant musical compositions. The drill show of the Honor Guard Company demonstrated their high professionalism, flawless synchronization, and iron discipline.

The event was honored by the presence of Major General Kairat Umbetov, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the National Guard for educational and social-legal work.

In their speeches, participants emphasized the importance of instilling love for the homeland, respect for military duty, and a sense of responsibility in the younger generation.

"ALASH CAMP" is a unique 10-day project designed for teenagers aged 12 to 17. The main goal is to foster patriotism and civic responsibility, develop leadership, and enhance physical and intellectual potential. Campers live in platoon-style tents and are provided with five daily meals and complete field gear.

The program includes both theoretical and practical lessons. Youth gain knowledge in tactical medicine, drone piloting, land navigation, target aiming, as well as chess tournaments and combat drills. Special attention is given to the “Memory Room”, dedicated to fallen female heroes, and the “Soldier’s Classroom”, introducing military history and traditions.

In addition, the camp is equipped with a cybersports room, armory, and modern multimedia classrooms, making it a powerful tool for shaping the values of today’s youth.

The “Batyrlar” Military-Patriotic Center operates with direct support from the National Guard. Projects like “ALASH CAMP”, initiated by the Guard, are becoming key platforms for patriotic education, civic engagement, and leadership training for the new generation.
