Generation

Iff ay met December on May's turf.
December held her own.
In their last program of the year,
on May 15, Hillel Day School sixth-
graders and seniors from Jewish Federation
Apartments, Fleischman Residence and the Jimmy
Prentis Morris JCC spent a good part of the day at
the Biitzel Center in a flurry of activity. They
bowled, flew kites and hiked. They staged a quiz
show. Students presented their partners with books
about their lives. Topping off the event was a
friendship circle and a candlelighting ceremony.
"It was very interesting. You had a combination
of the youngsters and the oldsters. They mingled
so well. Everyone was pleased with the outcome,"
said William Israel, a Fleischman resident.
The Dor L'Dor program pairs seniors with stu-
dents for yearlong events, including a Passover
packaging project and an interviewing session in
which students take the histories of their partners.
This year, about 85 students and 60 seniors part-
nered up.
The sponsors of Dor L'Dor are National
Council of Jewish Women, the Marvin and Betty
Danto Senior Camp Fund, Jewish Home and
Aging Services and Hillel Day School. ❑
