1985 SAAB's FROM $11,588
by the spirit of friendship and
the way that everyone — no
matter what their handicap or
problem — was encouraged to
take part.
"There's no reason for senior
citizens to stay at home and
waste away," says Blas. '"At
JPM, there's something for
everyone."
According to senior adult di-
rector Sandweiss, that "some-
thing" ranges from discussion
groups to summer camping
sessions at Butzel Conference
Center in Ortonville, to a
seniors choir, called the
Melodears and directed by
staffer Debbie Klein. There is
bus transportation to and from
the Center, available at a
nominal fee.
While the seniors were con-
cerned • at first about the ex-
pansion of child development
services in "their Center,"
they now love having the
youngsters around. Helen
Singer, president of the Senior
Adult Council, says that the
children have "brought a ray
of sunshine and are accepted
with pleasure."
Singer is among the many
senior volunteers who con-
sider JPM their "home away
from home." She works from
an office in the staff area, help-
ing to organize programs and
acting as a kind of troub-
leshooter. She was instrumen-
tal in the naming of the
seniors' social hall and meet-
ing room in memory of the late
branch director Gene Jaffe.
But dedicated volunteers
and happy members have not
removed all problems at JPM.
A major one is space — or lack
of it. The staff notes that it is
not unusual to see "people
floating around, looking for a
place to have a card game."
They note that every available
corner is utilized and, at times,
"you can almost see the sides
of the building bulging out."
Another major problem: the
lack of a swimming pool. Many
people in the community feel
that a pool would be beneficial
to senior adults, while draw-
ing families and teens back to
the Center.
According to Marcy
Feldman, one of the reasons
the renovation effort began
was that people in the Jewish
community were swimming at
the YMCA in Royal Oak. She
feels a pool is vitally impor-
tant and talks of her own situ-
ation. Feldman would like to
have her daughter Ronit
attend Jewish day camp this
summer — and have a
"swimming pool experience."
While Ronit could attend the
program at Maple-Drake,
which does have swimming
available, Feldman feels that
the bus ride is too long for the
4-year-old.
Janet Levine agrees that
there is a need for the pool. She
says there is a strong concern
about "the lack of a homing
instinct among our young
people." She believes that a
pool would help bring them
back to the branch.
Although a study was done,
the issue has not been re-
solved. Brown says that he be-
lieves the problem "will re-
solve itself in the years ahead
on the basis of demographics."
He feels that as the neighbor-
hood stabilizes and JPM pro-
ves itself to be a viable, full-
service force in the area, there
could be a proven need.
The importance of reaching
out to young people continues
to be a major concern. Accord-
ing to Starr, there hasn't been
much programming for teens
and 'tweens. That issue is be-
ginning to be addressed, how-
ever, in a cooperative venture
with area congregations. Starr
is working with the rabbis to
develop a sports league, possi-
bly for basketball or vol-
ti
