«Orlyonok» is not just a recreation and wellness center, it is the history of
thousands of people, a place famous for its unique teaching methods and culture
that contributes to the upbringing of independent, thinking, initiative citizens, those
who try to make the world a better place without being afraid of responsibility for
their deeds. Orlyonok alumni are usually described as «people with dreams in their
hearts and wings behind their backs».
