| A a charity house in Tbilisi, Georgia organizes an annual "Super Grandmother and Super Grandfather" contest, to allow the elderly to fulfill their childhood dreams.
Every year, people aged over 70, from all over Georgia, come to Tbilisi to compete in the Super Grandmother and Super Grandfather contest, an event that allows them to display their artistic talents. Some play the piano, others dance, sing,and perform plays, but whether they win the coveted title of Super Grandmother and Super Grandfather or not, all contestants leave happy they were able to fulfill their dream of performing on stage.
Local and national television crews and reporters often attend the contest organized by the Ktharisis charity house, as some of the elderly contestants really are talented, and they want to speak to them, or write stories about them. Some contestants even make appearances on TV shows where they perform along established Georgian artists.
The 2011 edition of the super grandparents contest took place on January 5th.
I think there should be a "Super Grandmother and Super Grandfather" contest held in every contest around the world, to make the elderly feel like they have something nice to look forward to, every year. Well done, Georgia!
