Mayor Koblenz once again lauded the Senior Activities Committee led by Irwin Plotkin for their 2008 Annual Brunch. "Each time they hold a function it's another total, terrific success" Mayor Koblenz said. "We are all truly fortunate to have one of the best programs in any village anywhere" he stressed appreciatively. Over 100 "power-seniors" -age 60 and above - attended the brunch to launch the 2008 program. The new activities include trips to shows, gambling, bridge clubs, book clubs, computer and current event classes, and even discounts to local dinning. "New programs are being added almost daily" Chairman Irwin Plotkin said of the new exciting committee he is leading. The members of the community who lead the Senior Activities Committee and who are principally responsible for the success include: Irwin Plotkin, Chairman, Irving Chernofsky, Treasurer, Millie Krefsky, (a chief architect of the program), Sidney Krefsky, Roz Goldenberg, Harold Shnitkin, and Jack Sosne.

Seniors Launch Program of Trips
With Great Foxwoods Success!
|
The Senior Program began its extensive list of planned activities and programs with a trip to Foxwoods in Connecticut. The reaction was overwelming praise for the daylong event which ended with a cruise like ferry crossing of the Long Island Sounds. The next planned function is a dinner show and then the wine country in New Jersey. Mayor Koblenz said "The Senior Program is burgeoning and flourishing every day. It's leaders are to be commended, and we are delighted to see such unprecedented participation!"
Seniors Launch Major Program:
Held First Get-together & Brunch!
|
At the October Village Board Meeting the Mayor and Board approved a new program designed especially for Seniors who live in East Hills. Some Village residents have already begun to enjoy the activities, whether lectures on current events, playing cards or using the beautiful facilities at Village Hall.
But a successful program requires a team effort. The key to the program's success will be the widespread involvement of all the seniors in the East Hills. To gain the greatest involvement, a wide variety of exciting and diverse activities are being planned. Specifically they'll be book clubs, more bridge and card games, chess games, more current event sessions, computer activities and classes, trips to shows, a finance club, and even the production of a play at the Village Theatre. All ideas and all concepts are welcomed and will be considered.
