Honoring our Senior Luncheon on Saturday, Dec 10, 2016

Honoring Our Seniors

To Revive our Community

Luncheon

Saturday, December 10^th, 2016

1-4:30 PM

Grace Fellowship Church

3879 N. Port Washington Avenue

Milwaukee, WI  53212

Background and Purpose

Our seniors have worked diligently to preserve our heritage, neighborhood cohesiveness, develop a sustainable neighborhood, and pass on critical thinking and life skills.  The Triangle, Williamsburg, and Grover Heights since the 1970’s have organized block clubs that formed an incorporated association in 2014 and have continued to thrive.

The purpose of this event is to honor those seniors, present and not present, who are willing to share histories and skills so that current residents can rebuild the glory days of the area and build a sustainable community that proactively solves problems and organically develops its area and people holistically. 

          Our chosen symbol of honor is the Lamp of Knowledge.  It is our elders who possess the knowledge, learning, and skills that will enable the community to proactively thrive in the days ahead.  This afternoon, they will pass this on while eating and playing games with their succeeding generations who will ask questions and share their own stories.

          We ask that during the dinner you switch seats and make sure that you are sitting at different tables so that you can learn from someone else.  At the end of the luncheon, you will fill out a survey that details who you met, their stories, and what you learned that you can apply in life.  You will also tell how it will help you to proactively solve problems in the community.  Our Seniors are asked to describe the event and what they have learned from the younger generations.  Each of you will also state what you will do to help develop your community and preserve our rich 5PNA history.

          We are looking forward to this day of feasting, learning, and fun here at our special hosts Grace Fellowship Church.  We appreciate their hospitality.

   

       

Overview

As we open we would like to acknowledge the 5PNA members who made this day possible.  Those of you who are members, on committees, attend meetings, and who worked hard to request the grant that played a major role in sponsoring this event.

The Greater Milwaukee Foundation’s Reason for Hope Milwaukee Fund helped support this event with a $5000.00 grant.  The GMF has helped individuals, families, and organizations realize their philanthropic goals and make a difference in the community, during their lifetimes and for future generations.  The Foundation consists of more than 1,200 individual charitable Funds, each created by donors to serve the charitable causes of their choice.  Thank you to the Greater Milwaukee Foundation.

 Our gratitude also extends to Westside Missionary Baptist Church for their support with this event and many others.

We would also like to extend our appreciation to Andy and Trophy Athletic for their support of this event.

Win an orchard for your neighborhood-Victory Garden's Initiative Fruitty Nutty Contest

Annual Fruity Nutty 5 Contest by Victory Gardens Begins

For the fifth year in a row, Victory Garden Initiative (VGI) is giving away five community orchards through the Fruity Nutty 5 Contest, open through February 1. Communities in Milwaukee County are encouraged to apply via mail or online to win up to 30 fruit and nut trees to cultivate into beautiful local food sources. Winners will be announced at the VGI Fruity Nutty Affair, held in late February. VGI volunteers will plant the trees on Earth Day, April 22, 2017.

VGI has planted 23 orchards across the county in their mission to create a socially just, environmentally sustainable and nutritious food system for all by building communities that grow their own food. “Neighborhood orchards provide more than delicious, organic local fruits and nuts—they cultivate roots for closer communities, supplement grocery bills and get our neighbors outside, enjoying and preserving our environment,” says Executive Director Gretchen Mead.

For more information and to apply, call 414-431-0888 or visit VictoryGardenInitiative.org/FruityNutty.
