On a recent weekday afternoon, children from pre-K through third grade at the Beach Haven School created Halloween floral arrangements guided by the Intergenerational Committee of the Garden Club of Long Beach Island.

“The group is called Intergenerational because children are encouraged to invite a parent or grandparent to school to work along with them,” said event coordinator Beverly Reitinger. “There were 35 kids and 40 grandparents and parents participating.”
