Fraternal Fest Time!

It is hard to believe another summer has come and gone.

Before the leaves turn to vibrant reds and yellows, or the winds of the north begin to chill our bones, make sure you mark your calendar for the WPA Picnic-A Great Fraternal-Fest on Saturday, Sept. 8. Scenic View is nestled in the Laurel Highlands of Southwestern Pennsylvania. If traveling east, take the Donegal Exit off the turnpike. From there, a short and picturesque drive brings you to the meticulously maintained facility.

Over 100 volunteers spend countless hours cooking, cleaning and getting the camp ready for the huge crowd that attends this gala event Several busloads of WPA members come to enjoy the entire afternoon and listen and dance to the world class music of the George Batyi/Alex Udvary Zene. You can hear a csárdás or halgató. The melodious sound of the hegedű or haunting twang of the cimbalom reminds us of the music of our homeland as harmonious melodies resonate through the camp.

Enjoy a cold glass of sör or stop by and say, “Éljen A Magyar” to my family and have a toast of Tokaji bor with my édes apa and édes anya.

See the vast array of Magyar items the many vendors have for sale. Ride the giant hay wagon pulled by a mighty tractor as it chugs its way up to the top of the hill.

Remember to purchase the tickets for the Chinese auction. There are dozens of beautifully themed baskets filled with wonderful treasures. Last year, I was lucky enough to receive a bronze colored Coach Wallet that I still use to this day. Of course, all the proceeds from the auction go to the benefit of the scholarship fund. I want to thank every person and branch for their donations of baskets and ticket purchases.

Don’t forget the FOOD. It is all great!

If the Fraternal-Fest doesn’t quench your thirst for Hungarian celebration, the next day (Sunday, Sept. 9) a short drive to Northeastern Ohio will bring to you not one, but two more super Hungarian events: the 26th Annual Youngstown Hungarian Heritage Day and, a little further down the road, the Szüreti Mulatság at the Hungarian Cultural Center of Northeastern Ohio in Hiram, Ohio.

There are 18 clues for the September puzzle. Good Luck, and see you at the Fraternal-Fest!

Éljen a Magyar,

Erzsi Cseh (Lizzy Check)
