537.0. "Riding in Hungary" by TALLIS::MJOHNSON () Fri Mar 25 1988 12:39

I've reprinted  the  following  advertisement  off  a  flier (given to me by
Jonathan Ball).  From what I understand, these training sessions are 5 weeks
long  and  students  are  guaranteed  to  ride  2-3 horses under instruction
daily. I had heard a rumor that DEC was one of the companies sponsoring this
program (?) Has anyone heard anything about it?   -Melinda


InSight Marketing Group, Inc., a Chesterfield, New Hampshire-based marketing
firm,  is  planning an extensive equestrian program in the county of Hungary
in  July  and  August  of  1988.  This  new  program will offer instructors,
trainers,  and  students  of  horsemanship the opportunity to not only learn
Eastern European Equestrian riding, training, and care, but will enable them
to learn a new culture in another country as well.  

	On hand as a director, and at the request of the Hungarian government,
will  be Zoltan Iby from Hungary, who has extensive knowledge in the Eastern
Europe  Equestrian  field  with  a  Bachelors degree and a Masters degree in
Animal  Husbandry.  He  is  president  of  the  Prize  Jumping Committee, an
affiliate  of  the International Riding Committee, and a teacher/engineer in
Agricultural  Sciences.  Mr. Iby will be in the U.S. for a short pre-program
stay to further develop his English speaking skills.

Four Hungarian   horse  farms  will  be  offerred  this  year  with  lodging
facilities available on-site to enable the student to get the full effect of
the  program and to benefit from the rich culture that Hungary and its people
provide. 

After the  program's  trial  year  offered to the first 40 students, InSight
plans  to  affiliate  with  area  colleges and establish it as an accredited
course, providing several sessions a year to college students.
