The Simon Family Jewish Community Center’s Fleischmann Lounge was filled with warmth and excitement as members of the Seniors Club gathered for their July meeting, which included the formal installation of the club’s 2025–2026 Executive Board.
The new officers are:
- President / Senior Focus – Patsi Walton
- Financial Secretary / Membership – Philip Liebman
- Treasurer – Marc Pollock
- Recording Secretary / Book Club – Adrienne Royes
- Corresponding Secretary / Sunshine Corner – Evalyn Horowitz
Led by Sherry Lieberman, the new officer installation was filled with reflection and festive camaraderie—a celebration of leadership and community spirit.
Following the installation, members were treated to a spirited cultural program led by Mizrahi music and dance specialist Jackie Dratch. Her engaging presentation combined history, rhythm, and movement, drawing enthusiastic applause and joyful participation.
Patsi Walton, the Club’s new president, extended warm wishes to those unable to attend. “You were missed,” she said. “If illness or transportation challenges are keeping you from joining us, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d love to help however we can.”
The Seniors Club will take a field trip to the Chrysler Museum of Art on Wednesday, August 20. The group will meet at 11 am for lunch at the Simon Family JCC, earlier than the usual noon meeting time, before departing by bus to arrive at the museum by 12:30 pm. Space is limited, and members are encouraged to RSVP as soon as possible.
The Seniors Club welcomes all adults 55 and older who are looking to connect, learn, and enjoy time together. For more information, contact Robin Ford, interim seniors coordinator, at rford@ujft.org or 757-321-2304.
