To celebrate the 79th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2nd, many localities in Nghe An organized lively and engaging competitions in Scout rituals, camping, arts, and sports.
Since the beginning of August, many localities in the province have organized parades of the Youth Pioneer Organization to celebrate the 79th anniversary of the August Revolution and the National Day of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. In localities such as Hung Nguyen, Nam Dan, and Dien Chau, the parades were lively. (In the photo: A parade of the Youth Pioneer Organization in Kim Lien commune, Nam Dan district.

Performing the Scout ceremonies well and seriously plays an important role in training and educating members about ideals, life skills, self-management, organizational awareness, and discipline… Photo: Huy Thu The Scout troop review program included many activities such as parades, flag ceremonies, singing the national anthem and the Scout anthem, practicing formations, performing individual movements, and performing rhythmic gymnastics... Although the troop review was held in hot, dusty weather or during sudden rain showers, the children still tried their best, and the participating units organized the event systematically with a judging panel, a summary, commendations, and awards... all done thoughtfully.

On this occasion, the youth union members actively guided and assisted the children in their training.

Mr. Tran Van Thai, Secretary of the Kim Lien Commune Youth Union, said: After nearly 20 years of interruption, the camping and Scout ceremony parade activities have been revived by the locality, much to the excitement of the young people. The Scout ceremony competition took place on August 19th, under hot weather conditions, making it quite tiring for everyone, but very enjoyable.
