A look back at the 2011 Annual Gala

LSNC_Staff — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 20:54:15 +0000

The event, held on Oct. 28 at nearby Lincoln Center, celebrated “the center of people, partnerships, and learning.”

With the new year in full swing, it’s time to look ahead to what we can accomplish in 2012. But first, we must look back at 2011, which was a productive and creative year capped by a successful annual gala, held on October 28 at Lincoln Center’s Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse.

Honored in 2011 were three valuable partners to our organization: Fordham University, who provides us with tutors, mentors, and volunteers for our Youth Services, Senior Services, and Day Care programs; The Stella and Charles Guttman Foundation, which has provided general support to our organization for the past six years; and board member Christine Millen, who served diligently on our Board of Directors for over ten years. On hand to entertain were the Barry Harris Jazz Chorus, a longtime friend of the center’s, along with the Richard Clements Trio.

More than just a fundraiser, our annual Gala is an opportunity for our friends and supporters to see firsthand the work we accomplish everyday and the impact we have on our greater Lincoln Center community.

The Board of Directors, the staff, and the participants at Lincoln Square Neighborhood Center would like to thank everyone who made it out for the event, and sends best wishes for continued partnership and success in 2012.

LSNC Welcomes the Girl Scouts

mirza — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 13:45:51 +0000

LSNC welcomed the Girl Scout Program this past December. What began as a summer workshop about Girl Scouting led by Heather Reine of GSUSA resulted in the formation of three troops by the end of last year; Daisy troop 3410, Brownie troop 3411 and Junior Girl Scouts troop 3415.

Each Girl Scout level has various activities and tasks to complete and memorize in order to move through the unit to the next level up. Juniors are fourth and fifth graders.

The Daisy Girl Scouts, kindergarten and first graders, very first activity was to learn about soil and seeds, and plant their first flower. The Plant Hero, a horticultural consultant, came and worked with the girls to complete and understand planting and growing flowers.

The first major task for the Brownies, second and third graders, was a service project. The girls voted to help improve the community through a park clean up. The Juniors, fourth and fifth graders are currently in the process of picking their activity so stay tuned!

The LSNC Girl Scouts held their very first INVESTITURE CEREMONY on February 3, 2011 whereby new Girl Scouts are welcomed in to scouting by reciting the girl scout promise, receiving their commitment pins and giving the official handshake.

All three troops participated in the Girl Scout cookie sale this year to raise funds for their troops and collectively sold over 2,100 boxes!!!

LSNC girl scouts meet bi-weekly on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays (Daisy, Brownie and Juniors respectively). There are a total of 25 girl scouts in our program.
