the computer, write pro

grams (see adult classes for
times).
Kid COMPUTE! COM
PUTE !’s educational
courses for children teach
basic computer while the
students have fun! All ex
perience is hands-on using
COMPUTE!’s own com
puters or the child’s own
home computer. The course
is designed for 10 hour and
V% sessions giving 15 hours
of high quality instructions.
Jan and Bill Thomas, the
new owners of COMPUTE!
promise exciting classes
where much learning takes
place. While only fourteen
participants can be ac
comodated in each class, the
JCC expects to have more
computer classes in the

December was a brief but active month for the Chai Group.
At Chanukah, Chai members cooked for, set up and served at
the luncheon honoring Chai drivers. The social hall at Temple
Beth El was draped with crepe paper and balloons. Rabbi Krant-
zler opened the program with the candle lighting, followed by
Annie Goldberg’s reciting of the hamotzi. The food was
delicious—as usual Thelma Levy cooked latkes for the limch^n.
Plaques were given to each of the drivers.
On the 12th Chai celebrated the December birthdays with a
cake. The group said “until the spring quarter” to CPCC in
structor Judy Tager who will take the winter off. RSVP (Retired
Senior Volunteer Program) Director, Lisa Martinez, offered sug
gestions to Chai members for volunteer commitments in the
Jewish and greater community.
“Yentl" was the special grand finale for a full autumn.
Members and drivers lunched at Morrison and then went to see
the Barbra Streisand film. Chai meets again January 9, the
beginning of a new quarter.
