The IV. Hawaii Diaspora School Camp took place November 26–30, 2025, on the northern shore of Oahu, during the Thanksgiving period. Beáta Balog and Attila Egyedi, representing the Crossroads Band and Crossroads Music and Arts Foundation, led daily folk dance and music sessions — including ukulele instruction and campfire singing — for children and adults alike. The week-long program was built around the animated film Szaffi, weaving together Hungarian cultural heritage, crafts, and hands-on creativity, and concluded with a closing gala where participants performed everything they had learned.
