October 2019 Newsletter OCTOBER 2019 The Riverdale NEWSLETTER YM-YWHA Senior Center From The Director Wishing everyone a Sweet and Healthy New Year. This month we will be closed for the Jewish New Year and many other important Jewish Holidays. But we still have a packed schedule of pro- grams and activities. In response to member’s requests we will try throughout the year to celebrate a variety of cultural holidays with special menus and events. We celebrated the Jewish Holidays in September with our annual Rosh Hashana Luncheon. For October, we plan to celebrate Spanish Heritage Month with a special meal and Flamenco Dancers on Friday October 4. We are also resuming several popular programs this fall in response to member’s requests. Our choral group, Improv Class, and Sculpture class will all start up again. These classes are not in our regular budget. Instead they are being sponsored by Senior Center fundraisers and members’ do- nations. For the first time in New York State citizens can vote before election day. Early voting starts Oc- tober 26 and runs through election day, Tuesday November 5. While this is considered an off year for key candidates, there are some important proposals on the ballot such as revisions to the New York City Council. I will post and announce information about the ballot proposals and early vot- ing as we get closer to the October start date. When possible we are asking our members to call Center staff directly instead of calling the Y’s receptionist and asking to be transferred. Staff direct dial phone numbers are on the back of the newsletter. You can also call our main number and ask for a dial by name directory. Again, Happy and Healthy New Year.

Created in 2018, Culture Pass has provided nearly 110,000 free passes to museums, gardens, historical societies, performance venues, and other cultural institutions. As institutions across New York City reopen to the public, the City’s tri-library system is providing library patrons select opportunities to visit New York City’s unparalleled arts and culture organizations which have reopened with updated safety protocols in place, free of charge. Through Culture Pass, participating cultural institutions provide day-passes for library cardholders to reserve online and then present the printed or digital pass to gain free admission to a specified organization. As of November 1, 25 participating organizations including the Alice Austen House Museum, Brooklyn Museum, Kingland Homestead, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and New York Botanical Garden are offering in-person passes. Additional museums will offer passes on a rolling basis, as they re-open and are able to begin taking passes again. The list of Culture Pass institutional partners currently offering passes follow below. For more details on Culture Pass and reservations, visit culturepass.nyc.

  • November 2019 Newsletter
    NOVEMBER 2019 The Riverdale NEWSLETTER YM-YWHA Senior Center From The Director Each year, we are asked to forward copies of many of the documents that are posted around the Center to the New York City Department for the Aging. It occurred to me that many of our members may not take time to read these documents despite their importance. If you look in the glass case behind the volunteers when you sign in for lunch, you will see the Senior Citizen’s Bill of Rights; a poster reminding everyone that our suggested contribution for lunch is $2.50; and a grievance procedure should you have a complaint. On the door by the elevator, you will see our evacuation procedures and the rules for members of the Senior Center. I encourage you to take a few minutes to read these documents. We post this information not just because we are required to but to ensure you know your rights and feel safe and protected at the Center. If you would like hard copies or electronic copies of anything that is posted, let me know. The Center is a place where older adults should feel comfortable seeking help and I am very pleased that we have an expanding Social Service program. Please join me in welcoming two new part-time social workers to our team. Jennifer Raff replaced Jamee Adams as our Safe at Home Coordinator. Safe at Home provides case management to older adults in their homes as part of our UJA partnership with the YM & YWHA of Washington Heights.
