Happy President’s Day!

On February 19, 2012 the WOA visitors (23 persons) marked «President’s Day» at the Information Resource Center in Lutsk.
The meeting was divided into 2 parts. The first part – a slide-show demonstration – was devoted to customs and traditions of that holiday. We talked about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln – two US presidents born in February. Then we explored the biographies of the US presidents to learn more about the life and politics of each of them.
The second part: the audience was proposed to watch the movie «Air Force One», a thriller about the US President who was faced with the decision: give in to terrorist demands or sacrifice not only the country’s dignity, but the lives of his family.
The audience was specifically interested in talking about US presidency, mainly about president’s vision for the future. Also of great interest was talking about interesting and funny facts about US Presidents. The book exhibition «President’s Day in the USA» enlarged by the posters «Abraham Lincoln» helped the visitors of the WOA Center to get up to date information about the United States Presidents and their policy.
