June 1987, William Penn Life, Page 3 ’Camp Hungária’ set for premier season at Mount St. George WELLSBURG, WV — William Penn’s summer program at Mount St. George in Wellsburg, W.Va., offers a variety of prog­ramming and economic housing for everyone. Do yourself a special favor and come for a day, spend a night, or stay for a weekend or a week. Come and participate in our sum­mer program. Camp Hungária ’87 welcomes you. Just imagine yourself spending the weekend on a lovely historic estate nestled in the rolling hills of West Virginia. The early morning sun beckons you to take a walk and enjoy the fresh air. Have a continental breakfast in the Kave Haz (coffee shop) and before you learn tech­niques, methods, designs and his­tory of Hungarian folkart. There will be time for swim­ming, hiking, meditation, and if you want, chatting in Hungarian with our resident folkartist. Marianna Halassy, a recent refugee from Hungary and skilled folkartist, and Fraternal Director Elizabeth Szabó have planned an exciting and creative folkart pro­gram for those interested in learn­ing more about Hungarian folkart techniques and motifs. The choice is yours. What will you decide to make? Will you begin to work on a Hungarian embroidery piece? Will you spin yarn and weave yourself a purse Hungarian-style? Or, would you prefer to work with clay and leather as so many of our ancient forefathers did? Special craft sections will be set up on a permanent basis. If you come for a day you may participate in the craft activity of your choice. Day projects are designed so that you can "make it and take it.” Weekend workshops are de­signed to give you a more in­depth knowledge of Hungarian folkart patterns. The fee for day workshops varies from $5.00 to $15.00. In some cases the materials are in­cluded in the fee, but not always. Weekend workshops will include room, board and craft project. The fee is $50.00 if you bring your own linens. Camp Hungária has a variety of places for you and your family to stay. There are nine tents in our campground area.
