Jewish Community- Center
Center Fold
Welcome in the Summer of '95 with
Welcome to the Center Fold
halom and welcome to the
Center Fold, an innovation
designed to keep you in-
formed of all the exciting pro-
grams and events at your Jewish
Community Center of Metropol-
itan Detroit. Each week, you will
find the Center page of the Jewish
News entirely filled with the lat-
est JCC news, information, fea-
tures and promotions in one easy
to find location.
This page reflects the new ex-
citement surrounding the Jewish
Community Center. There's a
new vitality at Maple/Drake and
Jimmy Prentis Morris, with a
more active attitude and plenty of
vigor. We listened to your com-
ments and took action.
You will notice it the moment
you walk into the facilities. The
changes will grab your attention
from the increased activity in the
lobby to the upgraded focus on
customer service to the new look
and style of our publications.
We've made some changes already
and many more are planned.
There's so much going on, we
need all this space to make you
aware of everything.
The Jewish Community Center
is vibrant, the programs are pop-
ular and the variety of activities
offered provides an appeal for
everyone. It's time to let everyone
in the community know the JCC
always has room for you, your
family and friends.
In short, we are taking steps to
make the Jewish Community
Center as comfortable and famil-
iar to you as an extra room in your
home. We are a part of you, and
we want to be a bigger part of
your life.
Keep reading and enjoy. There's
a lot going on at the Jewish Com-
munity Center, a place to experi-
ence tradition. It's where you
belong, it's where I BELONG.
