Fraternal Activities
 Hungarian Heritage
Experience
As part of our commitment to promoting our
Hungarian heritage, the Association sponsors a week-long
Hungarian Language Camp each summer at Penn Scenic View.
The camps are open to all adult life-benefit members.
Each camp offers language instruction on two levels,
beginner and intermediate, and is limited to a total of
25 students.
This program continues to be successful because it
offers more than just extensive language instruction.
Students learn about Hungarian history, geography,
culture and society. They also participate in nightly
social activities at which they can practice their new
language skills in a relaxed, conversational setting.
The continuation of intensive learning, interesting
topics and informal atmosphere leaves many students
eager to learn more about the Hungarian language and
culture.
