In order for the organization of cheerful street festivities for the village to be at the highest level, it is necessary to take into account all the nuances when preparing the holiday.

• Celebrating Maslenitsa on the street involves the preparation of various structuresdesigned for all kinds of contests and games. It can be a variety of bars, posts, horizontal bars. It is very good if the farewell to the winter for the villagers can be done next to the sports ground. Then part of the competition can be held on it and you don't have to build additional structures. If not, then it is not so difficult to erect several wooden structures, and then disassemble them.

• You will also need a variety of inventory for contests. This can be, for example, pillows, ropes, ropes, jump ropes. It all depends on what games, contests, competitions will be held. By the way, they should also be thought out in advance.

• Maslenitsa event is a bright holiday, so it is worth considering its design., prepare all the attributes and decor, with the help of which the decoration of the square where the holiday will take place will be carried out.

• Festivities on this day are necessarily accompanied by delicious dishes., lots of pastries, hot drinks. And for this you need to decide in advance which food companies to invite for organized trade. If the holiday is held in the countryside, then very often the villagers themselves prepare various dishes and delicacies and bring them as treats for the holiday, especially if a culinary competition is being held and it is planned to designate and reward the winners.

• It is imperative to provide for the availability of prizes for different competitions. No Shrovetide event is complete without fun competitions and gifts. Therefore, it is immediately worth deciding whether budget money will be allocated for all these purposes or whether you need to look for sponsors.

• Another important point to keep in mind is security. The holiday implies a large gathering of people, the presence of fire and other potentially dangerous moments. Therefore, you should always have fire extinguishers, a first aid kit in case of emergency, and, possibly, a paramedic at the ready.

The area where the event will take place should be decorated with bright colors. The design depends on the budget that is supposed to be spent on organizing the event. These can be various figures made of drywall and properly painted - huts, suns, samovars, pancakes. All this, of course, should not be chaotic. You should think over the exposure, and at the same time provide for a photo zone where you can take pictures for memory.

But in many cases, the traditional stuffed animal, the sun, all kinds of ribbons and flags are enough. To do this, you can place a high pillar in the middle of the square - a bright yellow smiling sun will flaunt at the top. And from it in all directions there will be multi-colored ribbons along the entire perimeter of the square. At the bottom, the tapes should be pegged or tied to trees if they frame the clearing. Even this kind of decor already allows you to feel the holiday atmosphere.

A rural holiday always includes folk amusements, which include all kinds of competitions, accompanied by fun and shouts of fans. These include:

• tug of war (two teams with the same number of participants pull the rope - each in its own direction);
• competition in strength (lifting weights, barbells, squats with weights, push-ups, pull-ups);
• a manifestation of dexterity and strength (you need to climb to the very top of the pillar, where the prize or certificate for its receipt will be located);
• all kinds of relay races, for example, jumping in bags, etc.

It is possible to organize contests for adults on culinary themes. To do this, tables, stoves and boilers on bonfires are installed on the square, which will allow participants to cook any dish. The celebration of Shrovetide is always accompanied by hot pancakes with all kinds of fillings. All baked goods are served hot with hot tea from a samovar.

There is a place on such a holiday for competitions on the speed of eating pancakes and pies, and other culinary dishes. You can guess with your eyes closed what kind of filling the pancake is served with. After all, there can be a great variety of fillers for pancakes: cottage cheese, berries, jam, apples, potatoes, meat, fish, caviar.

By all means, on this day, you need to hold a competition of ditties and other folk art.

Usually, the program of such a holiday includes a theatrical performance in which Winter fights against Spring, but Spring wins in the end. The culmination is the burning of a scarecrow, as a symbol of everything old and unnecessary, all worries and troubles, thereby giving way to something new, good, bright and kind.

The scenario plan is usually prepared in advance by the workers of the village's cultural center. It is the creative team that will have to think over interesting moves, the theatrical holiday falls on their shoulders.
