During a recent meeting at the Northwest Focal Point Senior Center in Margate, board members expressed their appreciation for the center's ongoing efforts to foster community among seniors.

Board member Rosanna commended the staff for their dedication, noting the joy and sense of belonging that seniors experience during events at the center. She emphasized the positive atmosphere, where seniors can dance and socialize, reinforcing the center's role as a vital community hub.

Upcoming events were a focal point of the discussion. Board member Simone announced a health fair scheduled for June 25, running from 9:30 AM to 1 PM. This event aims to provide valuable health resources to seniors. Additionally, a caregiver's conference on disaster preparedness will take place on June 30 in Davie, organized by the Aging Disability Resource Center.

She encouraged community members to visit, especially during special events, to witness the remarkable vitality of the seniors, some of whom continue to dance and engage actively well into their nineties.

The meeting underscored the center's commitment to enhancing the quality of life for seniors in Margate, fostering a sense of community and support. As the summer approaches, the board looks forward to continuing these initiatives and engaging more residents in the activities that make the senior center a cherished part of their lives.
