After the conversion of the Soviet Union to the Russian Federation summer camp "Zhuravlenok" turned into the eponymous children's health camp-holiday and lasted until the early to mid-2000s, when for some reason, was closed.
"The first CMT" is still here, in contrast to most other owners of deceased pioneer camps, and "Zhuravlenok" it was decided to renovate, build, modernize and transform in the recreation center "Mikhailovskoye."
However, on the renaming and brick outbuildings on fire ladders residential buildings did not get, and now this great and excellent camp abandoned.

Enjoy watching!



So, now the area of ​​the camp is a quiet and cozy place, overgrown with grass and bushes.
At the camp had their own football field with bleachers, a swimming pool with two saunas, summer terrace (for some reason, is a closed building), tennis court (!) And a lovely indoor swimming pool.
The photo overgrown bleachers near a football field and a concrete table tennis tables (there was even a large court, but we did not go to it)

Five residential buildings (exactly the same) have changed slightly since Soviet times - in the 2000s of the street (firefighters) wastes shall stairs were a new brick wall with a red roof and a large light box

However, inside the residential buildings to do, in general, there is nothing, so we started with a tour of inspection of the territory of the basin.
Pool is a simple one-story building with a very nice lounge

After leaving the building of the swimming pool, go to the dining room.

Unusual in this case is that the dining room is under the stairs descend to the shelter. Somehow it happened that fallout shelters and air-raid shelters in the pioneer camps were not provided almost never, and there is one - a rarity and bait for Lana Sator =))
So dining. Is dining room, as usual, on the second floor, which can climb on the outside or the inside stairs
