Zhang Ming: Recall the people and things founded by the Kunming Winter Swimming Association in the Year

In the summer of 1976, a group of swimming enthusiasts gathered on the banks of Panlongjiang under the Railway Bridge of the northern suburbs of Kunming. Along the Mother River, this group of swimming enthusiasts with common interests help each other to help each other, travel with each other, and do not distinguish between winter and summer. Among them are teachers, engineers, doctors, police, workers, farmers, etc., the largest 60, as young as in her 20s.

During that time, at 5 pm every day, the sunset gradually merged. Swimming enthusiasts came to Panlongjiang together with the city from all directions. Start swimming. Everyone will learn about swimming skills, encourage each other, and help each other. Regardless of the elderly and young people, everyone will get along well, unity like a family. In addition to the "agreement" of Panlongjiang swimming every afternoon, enthusiasts often use Sunday holidays to travel to Dianchi Lake and Chengjiang, and initiate mass sports activities that have organized several times to cross Dianchi Lake.

Among these swimming enthusiasts, Master Liu, who was old, lived in Wenmiao Street at the age of 60. Master Liu was the leading swimming generals in Kunming, and a bronze skin was shiny. It is said that when he was young, he could swim from Yantang, Lao Kunming City to Xishanjiahui Bay.

Another old predecessor was the initiator of the Kunming Winter Tour Association, Xie Damin. At that time, I was enthusiastic about being at the age of 50. Once a democratic party, a representative of the People's Congress of Panlong District. At that time, he worked at the Sanqiao Automobile Repair Factory in Kunming City. He was a welding engineer and special welding expert. After crushing the "Gang of Four" in October 1976, Xie Damin submitted a proposal as a representative of the Panlong District People's Congress "Suggestion that the government attaches importance to the people's winter travel activities". This proposal was passed and later transferred to the Municipal Sports Commission. At that time, the group department of the Sports Commission also convened a seminar for winter travel enthusiasts (mainly Panlongjiang swimming enthusiasts) and agreed to establish the "Kunming Winter Tour Association". Xie Dawei Shishunzhang became the chairman of the Kunming Winter Tour Association.

At that time, he also showed you the "proposal" that he had passed. Everyone praised it: the old Xie teacher did a great thing for our winter travel enthusiasts! With government support, everyone can rationally put it on Panlongjiang in Panlongjiang. Winter tour!

I remember at the ceremony of the establishment of the Winter Tour Association, Fan Ye, the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau at the time, also spoke. One sentence he said: "There are many people who swim in winter, and there are few people who crimes in society." This sentence has made me never forget.

In addition, there is another old overseas Chinese, Zheng Yalai, who has participated in Nanqiao Machinery. He was an outstanding technician of the auto repair factory and had a good technique for repairing motorcycles. Many years of obligations to help others repair motorcycles and do not take them. He was loyal and kind. Due to the extreme left reasons at the time, Zheng Yalai abandoned the history of the patriotic behavior of returning to China to return to China to participate in the Patriotic movement of Nanqiao. He once told me that as long as he went to Panlongjiang, he would get better. Panlongjiang is a place to bring him joy.

To this day, the real story that happened in the group of swimming enthusiasts still remembers it.

In the 1970s, the first feet (commonly known as the duck's palm) swimming in Panlongjiang's mother river Zhao Tianhan, a former teacher of the fifteenth middle middle school. At that time, everyone tried to wear his feet in the water out of the water out of curiosity. The scene was fun and happy. Today, he is the general manager of the "divine industry furniture".

In the winter of 1977, Huang Youping, a car worker who worked at the artificial board factory at the time, caused the right -handed finger miscellaneous amputation due to work injury. He finished the operation in the morning, threw the necrotic finger into the spittoon, and wrapped his right hand in the afternoon and jumped into Panlongjiang to swim. It was based on this perseverance that he was admitted to the university and is now in a high -ranking teacher.

Qin Weixiong, the former Metallurgical Engineer of the Kunming Smelting Factory, the provincial and municipal model workers, and the May 1st Labor Medal. Every time he got off work, he brought his young son to Panlongjiang. For the safety of the child, he was carefully connected to his son's waist with a rope and jumped into Panlongjiang to insist on swimming exercise. It is a typical "three" of work, life and fitness.

In general, most of the people who swim in the winter of that year were a group of people who were energetic, risky, and worried about the country and the people. They have the leader of the Divine Industry Group, Zhao Tianhan, and Ma Yaowu, the boss of the marble; Wan Cong, who studied and studied hard on the side of Panlong River, and became a attending physician from ordinary workers; Chinese teacher Prievar, and Huang Youping, a higher vocational teacher; there are Mr. Wang from the former Kunming National Defense Technical School (once commended and rewarded by Kunming) in the Wuxingsao Bridge of the Cauli Garden; Warriors: One is Dr. Liu of the Pharmaceutical Factory, and the other is Master Wang of the raw meat joint factory. In addition, many people won the third place in the Beijing Kowloon Cup Winter Winter Swimming Competition in the National Winter Tour Competition, such as the automotive factory; Xu Liangtai and Zhao Yun participated in the National Winter Swimming Competition in Baici, Guangxi, and won the first and second names. Zhao Yun also participated in the Kunming Challenge Extreme (5 -degree Celsius water in water for one hour) to get the first place.

After many years of observation, I found that in fact, the enthusiasts participating in the winter swimming exercise are not only good. Due to long -term swimming, they love water and love water, and they love the environment. Lovers have some conventions: if they swim, they do not need soap or yurthow to wash themselves before launching. Everywhere you go, we will pay attention to protecting water sources and promoting environmental protection.

In the early 1980s, Panlongjiang was contaminated, and the earliest winter travel enthusiasts were discovered, and they reported to the Spring City Evening News in a timely manner, which attracted the attention of the government.Remember the sentence that year: "Although the river water in the frontier is clear and pure, it will turn Dianchi Lake into a big dung pond." Today we can see that "cure Panlongjiang and protect the mother river" has become the previous municipal government.Government policy.After years of governance, Panlongjiang's water quality has gradually changed, which is also a scene that makes all swimming enthusiasts happy.Because the relationship between swimming enthusiasts and mother Hepan Longjiang is the embodiment of the harmonious development of man and nature.According to incomplete statistics, nearly forty years have developed nearly 10,000 members of the Kunming Winter Tour Association.More than 20 enthusiasts who traveled around Panlong River that year, despite being decentralized, they still insisted on swimming exercise.(Zhang Ming's contribution)
