The Sochi 2014 Winter Games is a chance for the Russians and the Russian Federation, to prove – they are able of achieving great successes in both economic  situation and sport. But, let’s keep our eye single, Russian sportsmen are not bad, and their school of figure skating is a legendary one.

So, the symbol of the Sochi 2014 Winter Games is still unknown. Some people claim it to be a Cheburashka or a Mammoth, others believe in Olympic Misha triumphal return. But, I want you to get acquainted with one more competitor – a glamour Snezhik. A father of this creature is Andrey Chesnokov, Snezhik is a non-official symbol of city Snezhinsk.

Snezhik is a close relative of a Snowman and a Big-foot. It was born in 1997 and occupied the 2nd place in the contest for the holiday symbol of Snezhinsk-city. But, this small funny white creature from snow, turned to be a very popular guy in Russia, so Andrey made cartoons about it and people even made a monument to Snezhik – people adore it. Snezhik  is a happy small boy with an irresistable smile. He makes people laugh and their mood definitely goes up. This small boy even has 2 own sites, the 1st one is devoted to Snezhik – his life, adventures and friends. Also, there everybody concerned can find cartoons about Snezhik. And the 2nd one is about Snezhik promotion. Many people want it to be the official symbol of Sochi 2014 Winter Games.

The official contest are reported to be announced late in November. According to Andrey, Mammoth advertising campaign is tough and covers almost of all mass-media means. But, the founder still believes he and Snezhik has some chances. Andrey has no money and no VIP-friends, but, Internet-voting is already opened, so choose, please!

It is widely known, that Olympic Bear, but now in the Russian Federation he is called only – Misha was a symbol of the Olympic Games 1980. He was born exactly to represent those games and after their ending decided, that fame and image is nothing. So, nowadays, he is avoiding annoying journalists, constantly changes his location and leads a healthy lifestyle.

Misha was chosen due to the general election of the Russian nation, Misha was an undisputable leader. His father is V. Chizhikov, Misha was made from his picture. At the end of the Summer Olympic Games, Misha touches hearts of audience, people and guests. He was more than cute, he was so affecting and provoking tender emotions. He flew into the blue sky together with a song “Good Bye, Russia, Good Bye!” Of course, Russians are rather extraordinary people, so, first of all, they wanted to send an alive, real bear into the sky, but then realized – it is too dangerous! Its behavior is unpredictable. Misha was OK! But he reigned in summer, and now there is Winter Olympic Games! And in a couple of days, we will hear the news.

There are some suggestions, that Cheburashka can be a new symbol of the Olympic Games. Whether it is true or not, we don’t know, but this creature deserves some attention. Cheburashka is a rather old boy or girl, actually, it is still unknown! So, you can make your wn suggestions, I think it won’t humiliate his or her dignity! Cheburashka is 41 year old and he or she out of a sudden appeared from the box of oranges, here we can make traces to Aphrodite, the ancient Goddess. So, to tell the truth, its origin is still unfamiliar to us, that is why there are so many mysteries around it.

Most of all I like her or his appearance – big, bright, round eyes. Strange, noticeable and even huge ears. Cheburashka is a very kind creature, he or she has a friend Gena. Gena is a big green crocodile; he reads press, smokes a pipe and works in a Zoo. Russian’s President Vladimir Putin is famous throughout the world, but Cheburashka is as famous as he is. So, there will be a free voting and, who knows, may be Cheburashka will have an opportunity to represent the Russian Federation.

And what about Olympic Misha? He is lovely. Will it offend him? Oh, no. First of all, he is not mean and greedy, Cheburashka is a friend of him. The second point, he is a summer symbol, so he decided to wait till the next summer Olympic Games! Misha, we are waiting for you!
