By: J.L. Shively he Hebrew word “Chai” means “life” and also consists of the numerical meaning for the number 18. For this reason, Rabbi Zalman Grossbaum remarked that the year 2018, the year the much anticipated Life Town complex is planned to open, will be a “year of life” for the community. The Friendship Circle, the program responsible for the construction of this complex, was founded by Grossbaum and his wife, Toba, 18 years ago and it is a program that has been “expanding ever since,” states Grossbaum. The Friendship Circle is a program which had been started by friends of the Grossbaum’s in Michigan and is a concept which the Grossbaum’s brought to this state to benefit Morris and Essex counties. With approximately 850 teen volunteers, the
Friendship Circle is an organization which has logged more than 45,000 hours a year in volunteer activities assisting children with special needs. “At the heart of all Friendship Circle programming is the belief that each and every individual can be a productive member of the community and benefit from inclusive programing,” as stated on the Life Town website. This is one of the found-
ing ideas behind the latest and grandest construction, which is the completion of a 53,000 square foot facility, named Life Town. This facility will include many exciting opportunities for families and students such as a zero-entry pool, gymnasium with sound-absorbent walls for children with sound sensitivity and even a three lane bowling alley, to name only a few of the many exciting features.
The largest allocation of space, 11,000 square feet, is designated to the creation of “Life Village” which is an indoor recreation of a main street, complete with traffic lights and roads. The Life Village, Grossbaum explains, will help children and teens with disabilities, “build life skills in a real setting.” This recreation of a main street will include many different stores and continued on page 2
