The younger generation was represented by children from the "Srachkovtsi" children's workshop in Kableshkovo, led by Pavlina Darlanova. Their presence symbolizes continuity and the significance of historical memory.

The ceremony included laying wreaths and flowers, as a gesture of deep gratitude to the national hero whose life and deeds continue to inspire generations of Bulgarians.
