Camagüey, Cuba, Aug 12th.- With a youth fair, which includes attractive gastronomic, cultural and sports options at the Fairgrounds of this city, the celebration for International Youth Day begins today.

Kely Álvarez Fernández, first secretary of the Provincial Committee of the Union of Young Communists (UJC, Spanish Acronym), explained to the Cuban News Agency that the activities in that facility will last throughout the day, and will conclude with a concert by Yomil, scheduled for the midnight.

As part of the festivities, she commented, in the Plaza Habana park and in the Lenin neighborhood, congresses will be held at the level of work areas, where the new generations will be able to exchange on the legacy of Commander in Chief Fidel Castro Ruz and the role of membership as a continuation of his imprint.

She informed that at exactly 10:00 p.m, as is now traditional on the eve of the birthday of the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, the UJC will accompany the Hermanos Saíz Association (AHS) in the cantata that will take place on the steps of the Pre-University Institute Urbano Alvaro Morell Alvarez.

At dawn on the 13th, when all of Cuba will commemorate the 97th anniversary of the birth of the eternal rebel, the digital platforms will be used to ratify the commitment of the youth of Camagüey with the present and the future of the nation, while in the afternoon a tree will be planted in his honor to symbolize his firmness, she declared.

As a prelude to both events, cultural and sports spaces, encounters with history, youth exchanges and the Cuba en mi Mochila project of the Martí Youth Movement were developed in all the municipalities, said Álvarez Fernández.

In the same way, she asserted, in view of the XII congress of the UJC, a greater rapprochement with the communities is achieved, through the leadership in productive and cleaning works in the city, as well as summer camps for children, adolescents and young people of the territory.

Today more than ever the youth of Camagüey, with the honor that defines us, we assume the duty to maintain the Revolution and Socialism, aware that our contribution is vital for the socioeconomic development of the province, she concluded.
