“The best part was sleeping in bunk beds, roasting marshmallows over a campfire, talking even after lights-out and wandering around the forest without Mum…and I also liked that our uncle, who lives in Budapest, was also able to see us dance!” – the children from Karcag summarised their experiences in Csillebérc preceding the Dancing on the Square performance on 9 June.

The teams already arrived in Budapest the day before the event in Heroes’ Square in order to meet, become acquainted with one another and to make friends. The Foundation for Democratic Youth, as before, provided invaluable assistance with this. Following their separate sessions, they rehearsed their dance as a group under the leadership of Berci Vári. The photos, taken by István Z. Tuba (an enthusiastic volunteer from Morgan Stanley), speak for themselves.
