Day 1
A day of inspiration and active participation
All the mornings of the camp the campers started with a line:
According to the tradition, when Noah went down to Ararat, he saw that some fabric had formed on the bottom of the Ark, he touched it, he saw that the wool had been compressed by moisture, a blanket had formed, the first piece. This is a testimony that connects the formation of the district with the Armenian Highlands. In the past, only men were engaged in carpet weaving in Armenia․ To be sloppy or sloppy, you needed strength to bury the wool. The torn wool was spread evenly on the floor, and the log was rolled over until it was completely buried.
