OLYMPIC GAMES 80

On August 17, 2003 the Foundation Save a Russian Child has participated in a sport event "Olympic Games 80" which was organized by "SalonUSSR" on the Nieuwe Meer near Amsterdam.

Before the beginning of the games, at the entrance, and during this sport event the group of several volunteers was spreading information among the active participants and the guests by giving them promotional leaflets about the work of the Foundation Save a Russian Child.
The information campaign has attracted enough attention of the public.


The summary of the SalonUSSR's announcement about the event:

“Oh-Oh-Oh, Oh-h!”- read out Leonid I. Brezhnev the first five letters of his opening speech at the 1980 Summer Olympic Games in Moscow. The five O’s stood for five Olympic rings.
23 years after SalonUSSR deciphered the formula and revealed the true sentimental quality of Olimpiada 80.
Here is the result:

Opening On Open air, Optimism, Off
