Russian American Sports & Health Fair
This was a sweet one; Russian American Sports and Health Day. It was held at Asser Levy Prk in the heart of Brighton Beach (Russia!). It is our second year doing this for the Russian American DUltural Center and the NY Daily News. The day started out drizzly but cleared up just in time. The photographs were taken by Mauricio Drazner, Salvador Brimans’ brother-in-law. Our boxers were Dmitriy Salita, Eilon Kedem and trainer, Hector Roca. Today’s Ambassador of Goodwill was Karen Briman. As you can see, the children had fun. According to security, there were a couple of thousand people present. They seemed to enjoy watching Hector and Eilon go through their moves, while Dmitriy narrated in Russian. Then it was the children’s turn. The gentleman in the suit holding up a WBC Cares T Shirt is a New York Senator. He wanted to be on stage with us.
The WBC thanks the wonderful participants who gave up their Sunday to do this. I am privileged to be a part of the WBC Family. Saludos!
