Knightly tournaments, chess and dancing

In Matushkino, building 409, children aged nine to 15 are welcome to join a chess club, where classes are held on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. This is a great opportunity to develop strategic thinking, attention span, and the ability to make informed decisions.

History buffs are welcome in Kryukov, in building 1416, where the "Ratatosk" reenactment club operates. On Thursdays and Sundays, its members recreate costumes, household items, and weapons, immersing themselves in the medieval era.

Rangers Dance Studio offers hip-hop classes at two locations: Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at Library No. 252 (building 1462) in Kryukov, and Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Dobrovolets Cultural Center (building 514a) in Savelki.
