More In And Around The JCC
New Year’s Eve Was ‘‘Super’’ volunteer of the Month
Sandra Gunn
Approximately 70 couples
attended the JCC New Year’s
Eve Party at the Adam’s
Mark Hotel. Of these couples,
19 opted for the overnight
stay at the hotel, which includ
ed a buffet breakfast New
Year’s Day.
While there were over 500
people celebrating the event,
JCC couples were seated
together and truly formed a
close-knit party within the
larger affair. The dinner was
excellent; the entree, being
prime rib, the hotel accom
modated our members who
preferred a fresh fish dinner.
Most would agree that one
of the highlights of the even
ing was the band “Steel
Creek”, which performed top
40 hits until after 1 a.m.
We anxiously await the
opening of the new JCC so
that we can hold these types
of functions in our own
building. In the interim, we
have found that our new and
beautiful hotels are providing
an excellent alternative.

dialing the JCC phone number (366-0357). Please let
us know if you have suggestions for our recordings.
The phrase “What would we
do without Sandra?” has been
heard many times around the
JCC. Sandra became involved
with the Center about 18
months ago. Since then, it has
been non-stop. She is the
chairperson of the Adult and
Phase-In Adult Committees.
Her most recent “J” involve
ment is the new JCC Board
Leadership Program.
Sandra has a B.A. in
English and an M.Ed. in
counseling. Her background
includes teaching and counsel
ing at the Jr. High level and
working in the 5 Points Com
munity with the Gethsemane
Enrichment Program. Sandra
was a UNCC professor in the
Human Services Department.
During her 5 years at the
University, she was involved
in “University Year for Ac
tion” and supervised student
teachers.
Sandra’s desire to volunteer
didn’t start at the ‘J’. She has
been £in advocate for the Coun
cil on Children, on a study
commission for the United
Way, and a facilitator at the
Latch Key Conference. During
the campaign season, you may
have seen Sandra with her
“D.G.” watch, stickers and
pins. She was an active
member of his campaign and
would love to see him run
again.
Currently, Sandra is on the
Council on Adolescent
Pregnancy, involved in a grant
writing project for Open Door
School, and an active member
of Temple Beth El.
Husband Bob, an architect,
and 3V2 year-old daughter,
Julia, couldn’t be more suppor
tive of Sandra. The JCC is ex
tremely fortunate to have such
an outstanding community
member as a volunteer.

Our JCC-Temple Israel boys
basketball teams have begun
their competitive season in the
Parochial League. Our J.V.
team (4th and 5th grades) has
played well against some
tough competition. They can
use your cheering at their
games on Saturdays at 4:30
p.m. at St. Patrick’s gym. Our
coaches, Danny Levine and
Robert Gleiberman, ap
preciate your support.
The Varsity team (9th-12th

many aspects of offense and
defense under the guidance of
Coaches Lloyd Scher, Chuck
Freedman, Larry Segal and
Morris Spil. At early season
our team looks strong as they
build for future seasons as
well. Their games are played
