Princeton Senior Resource Center Annual Holiday Dinner 2017

Earlier this year I met Susan Hoskins Executive Director of the Princeton Senior Resource Center (PSRC) during an event at the Arts Council of Princeton.

After a phone conversation I accepted her invite to the Annual Holiday Dinner that took place at The Suzanne Patterson Building 42 Stockton Street, 179 Spruce Circle (off Harrison St) in Princeton NJ.

During my visit I saw 140 members of the community gathered together for a holiday meal.  The meal was provided by Acorn Glen and PSRC.  Attendees were entertained by the music of Dave Saltzman (piano) Bob and Bill Klezmer as well as entertainment by Santa and the Ho Ho Ho's.  

Susan mentioned that "the attendees come from all over this diverse community and the surrounding, connecting with people they share a class or group with, or with neighborhood friends.  For some this is their only holiday party.  The mood is joyful and filled with gratitude."  

She went on to mention that "PSRC is the go-to resource for aging well!  We provide a wide array of programs and services for aging adults and family caregivers." 

During my visit I chatted with several of the attendees, volunteers, staff and board.  I will be returning at a later date to follow up with the table tennis group and some of the local organizations.
