and Development of the Olympic Movement,
the two-time Olympic champion
Dear friends!
On behalf of the Federation’s Council on Physical Culture, Sports and Development of the Olympic Movement and on my own behalf I welcome the participants and organizers of the International exhibition of available and elite sports, recreation and tourism "Extreme World Expo Show (Extremex)”!
A forthcoming exhibition is a unique one because it is to demonstrate the development of extreme sports and recreation in Russia, world leading achievements; to become a powerful promoting factor as well as involving the youth into extreme sports and recreation. I am sure that active sport and recreation is the only alternative to the challenge of the street, and their popularization is the very mission of the federal level. Thus, the event is not only very important to the development of physical culture, sports and recreation, but it is also a significant event in the country’s social life.
The exhibition will surely be stuck to the memory as the feast of sports, health and active lifestyle.
I wish you all success, great mood and new achievements!
