At Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center, older adults can take classes, exercise and enjoy a variety of organized activities
Sitting around a record player, a group of more than 25 older adults listened to a curated playlist from a collection of Yiddish music at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center in La Jolla in early January.
Eileen Wingard, who planned and moderated the panel, has always had a deep connection to music. She grew up in a multigenerational, Yiddish-speaking home in Chicago, where her grandparents and great-grandparents often played Yiddish music. During the upcoming Tour of Hidden Gems, participants will go on a mystery bus tour of San Diego to view unique gardens and architecture.
People who retired earlier than they originally planned due to a loved one needing caregiving, their own health issues or other causes might find the transition especially difficult. The Retirement Academy, which will launch this spring, is in part supported by a $25,000 grant from the San Diego Seniors Community Foundation through its Empower San Diego Senior Centers campaign.
“It really is a dynamic community center that we look at as a possible model for future development of intergenerational community centers in different parts of the county,” Gavin said.
