The Armenia Fund Constructs Yerevan Children's Sport School
Yerevan, 1 November, 2007 - The Armenia Fund Executive Director Vahe
Aghabegians accompanied with the Deputy Director Ararat Klghatyan and other
staff members took part in the opening ceremony of the Yerevan Children's
Sport School on October 31, 2007. The newly constructed building was opened
by the President of Armenia Mr. Robert Kocharian and Minister of Sport and
Youth Affairs Mr. Armen Grigoryan.
"We recognize The Armenia Fund's great contribution in the advancement of
national sport culture." The President said.
The sports school was constructed by the Armenia Fund. The two-storied
building has a ground floor, three shooting galleries, a gymnasium, sauna
and administrative rooms. 60 sportsmen can practice in the school
simultaneously - 150 sportsmen altogether during a day. The school is open
to all those who wish to train their shooting skills.
"We are grateful to The Armenia Fund for this gift," Director of the school
Hrach Petikyan noted. "The sports school is equipped with high-tech
facilities and is one of a kind in the whole South Caucasus; we have 59
firing ranges instead of 8 in the past. This will add to the number of those
interested in this sport and enhance the overall quality. We also highly
appreciate that the opening of the school will create jobs and contribute to
the infrastructure improvement in the area." Mr. Petiktyan mentioned that
they already have an agreement with the district municipality for
implementing a tree planting project around the school in mid November.
"We all should use our free time for more creative and satisfying leisure -
be it swimming, skiing or shooting. Creation of jobs and infrastructure
development is an important part of this accomplishment for us. " The
Armenia Fund Executive Director Vahe Aghabegians pointed out.
