On July 11, employees of the tax sphere celebrated their professional holiday with sports competitions, which, as you know, took place on July 9. The competition was held at the athletics center named after Olga Rypakova.
Unlike the action with employees of the banking system that took place a month ago, the Olympic champion herself, whose name the athletics center bears, was not at the event. However, there were plenty of good impressions, the joy of fighting for first places and unforgettable moments of triumph.
Three teams came together in the sports relay races: “Fortuna”, representing the Tax Department of East Kazakhstan Region, “Dostar” from the city Administration and “Luck”, which became a national team of tax specialists from Ulan and Glubokovsky districts. Each team consisted of a dozen people, five representatives of both sexes.
The competition program consisted of “fun starts”, tug of war, jumping from a place, shot put and relay 10 to 100 m. The champions of this kind of “Spartakiad” were the athletes of “Fortuna”, who became the first in the four stages of the “fun starts”, in tug of war, shot put and relay. The champion, as they say, was determined on an uncontested basis.
The winners of the Cup for the second place were the members of the Dostar team. They were lucky enough to win in the game “crossing” in the “fun starts” program, as well as in jumping from a place. Well, the third place was won by “Luck”. Many representatives of this team, due to their age data, could not compete on equal terms with younger rivals, but they fought to the end. And in the tug of war, they turned out to be stronger than the youth from Dostar!
However, the tax authorities of the region did not celebrate only sports competitions on this day. In front of the facade of the Olga Rypakova Athletics Center, there is now a small alley of nine trees planted by representatives of the Tax Department and their colleagues.
