Before the start of the awards ceremony, all the winning families gathered in the foyer of the Izmailovsky concert hall. Here, both children and adults could take part in various creative master classes, watch musical performances, take memorable photographs, and just get to know each other.

“For the families themselves, it’s probably the conviction that our lives are on the right trajectory, we’re doing everything right, it’s an opportunity to communicate with other interesting families. And for our society, it’s the authority and value of the family, affirmation of the family’s status, that important in our time,” this is how the Smirnov family from the Yaroslavl region, who won in the “Rural Family” category, talks about the competition.

The Smirnovs say about their nomination that they and other families from the villages are contributing to the prosperity of their small homeland, the area where they live.

The awards ceremony began with welcoming words from the presenters.

“Of course, it was difficult for the organizers to choose the best of the best, because each family is wonderful in its own way,” said TV presenter Svetlana Zeynalova.

The large concert hall received 85 winning families from all over Russia. The winners of each of the nominations were invited to the stage, the largest of which was “Rural Family” - 21 winners.

The winners received awards and flowers from the hands of famous public and statesmen, and then took joint memorable photographs.

“Dear mothers, you and I, it would seem, are doing such a small thing in the grand scheme of things - we want our children to grow up happy people, but in general, by investing our souls, we create a whole future. And I really want everything to be fine for your children,” Anna Kuznetsova, authorized representative of the President of the Russian Federation for children’s rights, addressed the families.

The winners in the “Keepers of Traditions” nomination were dressed in national costumes, and some families decided to choose outfits in the same color scheme: for example, in the Klementov family, all the girls chose light green dresses for the competition, but they could be noticed not only because bright color— there are 18 children in this family! They became one of the winners in the Large Family category.

“Dear fathers, dear mothers, boys, girls, you are our asset, you are the best and, as was already said here today, the best of the best,” said the Minister of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation Maxim Topilin.

A big festive concert was organized for the competition participants: between nominations, Russian pop stars congratulated the families from the stage.

As a result of the competition, an honorary book “Family of the Year - Russia 2017” was published, which all families received.

The results of the all-Russian competition “Family of the Year” 2018, which is held by the Children’s Support Fund and the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation, have become known. The jury determined the winners in the main competitive categories.

All 85 constituent entities of the Russian Federation took part in the main family competition of the country - that’s 329 families vying for the honorary title “Family of the Year”. According to the nominations of the all-Russian competition, they were distributed as follows: “Large family” - 74 applications, “Young family” - 69 applications, “Family - keeper of traditions” - 70 applications, “Rural family” - 68 applications. 48 applications were accepted in the “Golden Family of Russia” nomination.

Ugra was represented at the competition by 3 families who became leaders at the district stage - the Poluyanov family from Khanty-Mansiysk in the “Large Family” nomination, the Ivanov family also from the district capital in the “Family - Keeper of Tradition” nomination, and the Shitorov family from Kondinsky District in the “ Rural family."

According to the results of the competition, the Ivanov family was among the winners in their category. She will be awarded an Honorary Diploma and included in the honorary book “Family of the Year in Russia.”

We would like to remind you that, as part of the district stage, the Ivanov family presented a family pedigree book on the maternal side to the jury. Its layout, as well as photographs, awards and stories of family members were sent to Moscow, where they were also appreciated.

According to Natalya Ivanova, the history of her family is rooted in the history of Ugra. Her grandfather’s ancestors always lived here; relatives on her grandmother’s side came from Poland.

“My hobbies include reading and music. It so happened that we never part with books and start reading quite early – from the age of 4-5. For example, already at the age of 6 my mother read Belyaev’s “The Head of Professor Dowell” and Gogol’s “Viy”. Apparently, this is where her passion for science fiction and mysticism began, which later passed on to us, her daughters. My great-grandmother Anfisa Pavlovna Popova, although she was almost uneducated, graduated from three or four classes, but she knew Pushkin’s “Eugene Onegin” by heart,” Natalya shared.

For many, the love of reading played an important role in their choice of profession - their family formed its own teaching dynasty. My mother works as a teacher of Russian language and literature, my grandmother worked, as well as the niece and sister of Natalya’s grandfather. In addition, other relatives and teachers dedicated their lives to work there: my grandfather was a labor and music teacher, my aunt and younger sister are history teachers, and my older sister works as a head teacher.

However, one of the main traditions of the family is an interest in pedigree. So, as a result of common work, the family book “On the Waves of Our Memory” was born, which was published in 8 copies. According to Natalya, they have now released the second edition of the book, because the study of the genealogy continues.

We would like to add that the final events of the all-Russian competition “Family of the Year” 2018 will be held in Moscow on November 21-23. A solemn ceremony honoring the best of the best, the most friendly, creative, socially active, most outstanding families of our country will take place in the concert hall of the Cosmos Hotel.
