he JARCarnival was sponsored
by the organization's Young Adult
and Children and Family commit-
tees and held at the Irving and Bever-
ly Laker Education and Youth Complex
in West Bloomfield.
The day included games, entertain-
ment and all kinds of fun activities.
Chairing the free event were JARC
board members Amy Berlin and Judith
Shenkman.
"We developed the carnival idea
because many of the Young Adult vol-
unteers are now parents themselves,"
Shenkman said. "What better way to
build awareness than to have children
of all abilities sharing a Sunday after-
noon together." 17
