In 2011 12th of May plenty of young forest friends you could met in the corridors of Lithuanian University of Agriculture Faculty of Forestry and Ecology. Two events toked place under one roof: National stage of the contest "Young People in European Forests" and traditionally National Contest of Forestry. 5 teams of pupils were registered for the YPEF Contest, unfortunately just 3 teams, because of various reasons were able to take part in the Contests 12th of May.
First  task was to represent place where participants came from and organization which they are representing. All three teams have prepared very nice presentations, showing their daily life, nature and activities in the forest. Followed by it, questionnaires were given for each team. After two hours of struggle all teams finished this task as well. It was very difficult to decided which team is the winner, but after hard discussions and points counting, commission decided following:
1st place goes to young forest friends from Viešintai secondary school's forest friends circle "Atžalynas" (with 13 final points).
2nd place goes to young forest friends from Druskininkai "Saulės" secondary school's forest friends circle "Sakalėliai" (with 11 final points)
