In meeting took part not only kokchetavians, but also representatives of Makinsk, Shuchinsk and Stepnogorsk. It is necessary to add, that this measure did not look closed, in it took active participation young volunteers of Hesed.

Before to tell, how the classes have passed, we would like to express gratitude to Hesed "Polina" for organization and the realization of numerous seminars in Almaty it very much helped to lead this "mini seminar" in Kokshetau.

The nonresident participants were brought by the bus, as some of them were in Hesed for the first time. They were acquainted with the Jewish centre, its purposes and tasks. Then the classes with breaks on coffee - break and lunch began.

The participants of meeting were acquainted with work of library, its book fund, with last editions, and also with the chief of library - Nina Popkova, youth, which has answered all questions. About work of Jewish Community Center has told Natalie Chembrovitch. The coordinator of the program "Etgar" Helena Dyachkova has told about the first youth seminar in Almaty. It was necessary to see, with what interest the guys were engaged with the psychologist Olga Ojerelyeva. The seminar finished with celebratory dinner and viewing of films about life in the State Israel.

We would like quote an extract from the questionnaire of one of the participants of a seminar: "Today is such unusual day. For me the meeting appeared unexpectedly interesting. I liked classes with the psychologist very much. And in the first part, it appeared difficult for me. I was not up to the end ready to penetrate into businesses and bases of work of Hesed. It is very pity that I can not be here more often".
