REALLY LINVING

page 17

According to Program Man-
ager Jan Bayer, "The Covilles
have secured a place for group
living for the Jewish elderly in
this community."
Part of the endowment will
cover the personal care plus
plan, which includes homemak-
ing, medicine, cleaning and
bathing.
According to Baum, the Jew-
ish Federation gave JFS a grant
of $100,000 to last over three
years and then the program was
on its own.
"We only started with four
apartments, then we met our
miracle in the Covilles."
Said Mrs. Coville, "We're
happy and thrilled to be able to
do this for this program. It's a
great pleasure to re-pay the el-
derly."
Program residents pay what
they are able for rent. The rest
of the money is paid by JFS. Ac-
cording to Bayer, the full cost for
each individual per month
ranges from $1,600 to $2,200 if
personal care is included. Oth-
erwise, JFS covers meals and
transportation.
"Many of these people (in this
program) normally aren't able to
live alone," Goodman said.
"Many would have to be institu-
tionalized, but now they don't
have to." ❑

Carry On

The Huntington Woods eruv finally allows Jewish
residents greater freedom on Shabbat.

LYNNE MEREDITH COHN STAFF WRITER

N

ow that the eruv encom-
passing Huntington
Woods is up and running,
Jews may carry items out-
side their homes and push baby
strollers or wheelchairs on Shab-
bat.
The two-year effort to extend
the Oak Park eruv was com-
pleted earlier this month, said
Rabbi Yerachmiel Rabin of the
Huntington Woods Minyan. Ac-
cording to Jewish law, an
unbroken border must be erect-
ed and maintained around a
neighborhood to enable Jews to
carry from private houses into
public areas on Shabbat and hol-
idays. The eruv consists of
fences, telephone wires and ad-
ditional materials, making a
public area common property,
Rabin says.
Jews must check before every
Shabbat to make sure that the
eruv is intact. In Huntington
Woods and Oak Park, they may

call the eruv hotline, (248) 968-
ERUV.
The eruv encompasses the
whole of Huntington Woods —
all of Kingston, from Coolidge
down to Woodward, York down
to the Detroit Zoo, and Hunt-
ington Road down to the golf
course, Rabin says. It also in-
cludes 10 Mile Road as far as
Coolidge and the City Hall on
Scotia and 11 Mile, which is
where the Huntington Woods
Minyan meets every week for
services.
Those who helped bring the
eruv to fruition included Rabbi
Issochor Wolf and Dr. Jeffrey
Last of the Oak Park eruv; Rab-
bi Yehuda Kaplan, who did the
construction; and Midwest
Fence.
Also, the Huntington Woods
city commission, city manager
Alex Allie and individual resi-
dents whose property is touched
by the eruv had to approve the
