The All-Russian Society of the Blind in Dzerzhinsk celebrated its 75th anniversary.
"We live as one family," say members of the Dzerzhinsk local branch of the All-Russian Society of the Blind.
The celebration took place in the concert hall of the "Vera" Club for People with Disabilities. Pupils of the Sputnik Youth Center prepared dance, circus and vocal performances for the guests. Representatives of the Legislative Assembly, the City Duma and the city administration spoke kind and warm words. All of them, as well as colleagues from public organizations in Nizhny Novgorod, Bogorodsk and Lyskov, noted the enthusiasm of the local branch chairperson, Liliya Yerokhina, a woman "with gentle strength and goodwill," who leads her wards along the right path.
Active members and veterans of the organization were honored with letters of appreciation from the president of the VOS, certificates from the central board of the VOS in Moscow, and commemorative medals for the 100th anniversary of the VOS. The concert ended with a tasty buffet.
Dmitry Mesnyankin, the city administration’s chief of staff, thanked everyone involved in the anniversary for their active life stance and admired their ability to overcome difficulties.
"You are always ready to support your fellow townspeople, help them develop skills and abilities, and find themselves in various activities. It's great that you don't confine yourselves to your organization but actively engage in city life," said Viktor Romanov, deputy chairman of the City Duma.

November 26, 2025, 16:54 Sport NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" — Polina Zubova
On the morning of November 26 the Nagorny Sports and Entertainment Complex filled with Torpedo fans who had come to an open practice of their favorite team. During a week-long break between games in their home stretch, the club decided to please supporters and give them a chance to see behind the scenes of the training process.
Although it was a weekday, the stands were far from empty. Some even skipped school to watch their favorite players.
The first on the ice were goaltenders Denis Kostin and Ivan Kulbakov, accompanied by goalie coach Nikolai Khabibullin. A little later the skaters joined them.
The practice lasted about an hour but was held at a high tempo with a variety of drills as intense as a full game. As in a match, there were broken sticks and pucks flying out of the rink, some of which were picked up as souvenirs by the luckiest fans.
You couldn’t miss the coach — Alexey Isakov’s voice carried across the arena even over the lively hum of the stands. The session included team drills as well as individual work for defensemen, forwards and goalies.
Although the team had a meeting with the coaching staff scheduled after the practice, Torpedo players handed out autographs and posed for photos. Fans were reluctant to let some players go.
A correspondent from NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" managed to catch a few words from the Nizhny captain Alexey Kruchinin. He said that an open practice is not much different from a regular one: "Training is not a game, it’s a little different. Today we were told right away not to pay attention to the stands and to work in the same way. So the spectators just watch what the training process looks like from the inside. The fans didn’t distract us, everything’s fine."
Tomorrow the club’s newcomer Vladimir Tkachev, who joined the team in a trade with Sibir, will begin practicing with the squad.
On November 28 Torpedo will host Minsk’s Dinamo. This meeting (6+) will conclude Nizhny’s extended home stretch, after which they will head out on a three-game road trip in early December.
Torpedo currently sit fourth in the Western Conference. Thanks to the break in the schedule, the team has almost evened out the number of games played with other clubs. They trail the conference leader, Yaroslavl’s Lokomotiv, by just two points.
Earlier, Governor Gleb Nikitin spoke about what awaits the Nagorny complex after Torpedo’s move to the new arena, which, incidentally, is being postponed.
