Welcome Longer days and warmer weather mean more events and time to spend with friends and family. Summertime is a time to be hopeful and celebrate all the good things life has to offer, including our summer celebrations of Memorial Day, Shavuot, and the Fourth of July.

With summer coming up, the outdoor pool will be open!

We’re excited to see our members spending time by the pool and taking a dip during the hot weather. Be sure to stop in the J Cafe to get a refreshing smoothie or iced coffee! We will also have a new set of workout programs to keep you fit.

We hope to see everyone at the J Classic this year! The day will include our featured Adams Golf Tournament along with tennis, canasta, mahjong, Course of Caterers Dinner, J Classic Raffle, and Young Adult ParTee. New this year, we’re adding a pickleball tournament!

Grab your shades and swim gear, it’s summertime!

Creating Connections

It Takes a Village, and ‘What an Amazing Village We Have at the J’ “I’m on a basketball team? A real team? And I get to play in real basketball games?"

First-grader Christian Morales was ecstatic to learn that he was not just signing up for a weekly basketball class, but he was signing up to be a part of the Mayerson JCC Blue Jays basketball team. Christian always wanted to feel like he was a part of a team, and he found that at the J. The Morales family joined in 2017 to use the pools at the J and enroll Christian in Camp at the J. Since joining, they have taken advantage of almost all of the youth programs at the J – from Pokémon tournaments to archery classes. Laura owes a lot of Christian’s experiences to the staff that make it amazing. Coach Mike and Coach Rob have helped him with his basketball skills, sportsmanship and teamwork.

“It takes a village and, man, what an amazing village we have at the J,” Laura said.

Caring For Caregivers Series

Managing Family Dynamics through Illness

Hospice, Grief Therapy, Moving Forward

Tuesday, June 14 5:30 - 7pm | Mayerson JCC

Tuesday, July 12 5:30 - 7pm | Mayerson JCC

The journey of caregiving is not only physically and emotionally taxing, but can also put stress on relationships between family members. From having different opinions on major care-related decisions to sharing the responsibilities of care, the necessary life changes that come with a loved one experiencing illness can be difficult for families to navigate well. Leslie H. Brody, Director of Care Management, Counseling, and Crisis Intervention with Jewish Family Service, and Dr. Desiree Harding, Clinical Psychologist at the Mercy Health Blood Cancer Center, will share their knowledge and experience in guiding families through aging and illness.

At the core of hospice care is providing comfort, symptom management, and quality of life for patients who have decided to no longer pursue a cure for their illness. Hospice programs also provide care and support for families going through the loss of a loved one, including grief therapy to help families move forward. Hospice of Cincinnati will provide insight and awareness regarding their services and how they can be a benefit to the caregiver during end-of-life care.
