HaZaK Presents:

GOODNESS OF GANDER

Wednesday, October 21, at 1:00 PM

Most American adults know exactly where they were and what they were doing on September 11, 2001. However, 6500 people who were on board 38 planes have a special memory. They were on flights diverted to the small town of Gander, Newfoundland, where they found unexpected hospitality and made new lifelong connections.

Rosemary Deitzer will tell the story of "The Goodness of Gander" at the Northern Hills Synagogue HaZaK program on October 21, at 1:00 PM. The program will be a webcast conducted over Zoom.

Ms. Deitzer said, "This is simply a story of people doing good. Hear how the citizens of Gander hosted 6500 people for four days on one hour's notice beginning on America's worst day, September 11, 2001."
