The Swimming Upstream Radio Show continues its celebration
of the holiday season with a two-part Generation Gap Episode. Host Dorothy Wilhelm gets a visit from The Crafty Canadian, Sandra Solon, who shows how to make a very nice interactive advent calendar for the kids on a simple budget.

Then Dorothy (Silent Generation) welcomes in Ray Miller Still (Millennial) and Jason Falls (Gen-X) to explore ideas on how each generation celebrates the holiday season when you’re on a budget. They also
discuss the importance of family traditions and share some of their own.

The conclusion is that Christmas doesn’t have to be expensive and can focus on experiences rather than gifts.

Ray Miller Still is the editor of the Enumclaw Courier-Herald. Jason Falls is a consultant and producer of Swimming Upstream Radio Show.
