Persons of 50 years and above who want to remain healthy and happy are WELCOME to join HSCF NEW AGE (SENIORS) GROUP. Our Mission Statement reads as follows:

“THE HINDU SOCIETY OF CENTRAL FLORIDA NEW AGE (SENIORS) GROUP WILL PROVIDE A FORUM FOR CONVERSATION AND ACTIVITIES.

WE WILL FOCUS ON THE SOCIAL, CULTURAL, PHYSICAL, EDUCATIONAL AND SPIRITUAL WELL BEING OF ALL SENIORS AND HELP THEM REMAIN VITAL AND ACTIVE PART OF THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE.”

We meet on First Sunday of each month from 1.30pm to 5.00pm. A nominal cover charge of $5.00 per person applies. The program includes a seminar, games like chess, carom board, playing cards, study circle, Indian snacks, tea and coffee.

We wish to reach out to sick and lonely persons in our community. Every quarter, this Group also goes to feed the homeless at rehab center for battered women run by the Coalition of Homeless.

 

(1)  where we are?

We have not left any stone unturned to enroll members to the Group. We have 467 email addresses on our mailing list.  Though the list needs to be cleaned up as, some members have left the State or the world. Planning Group comprises of 23 members – the group meets regularly at least once a month to plan for the monthly events. . Several Seminars on various health topics; yoga; wealth management; tax laws; social security; etc.etc. have been conducted. Pic-nicks, cruise were also arranged.

(2) Where we want to reach?

(a) Short-term goals for 2009:

  • Essay Competition for children at Grand Parents Day celebrations
  • One Pic-nic
  • One Excursion
  • One day cruise
  • Study Circles 
  • Seminars on: Health; Insurance; Tax; Wealth planning; Safety; Grand parents day celebration

    (b) Long-term goals:

  1. Well beginnings of all BIG things are small!!! Our aspiration is to become a HUB for the baby-boomers of Indian Origin and HSCF to become at par with centers for Indians established at Canada, England, Los Angeles, Chicago. As more and more retirees from North continue to move to this wonderful WARM land, we would like to be geared to WELCOME and provide them with a common meeting place. If we continue to receive the usual support from all of you, HSCF management as well as honored contributors, our dreams would soon be fulfilled.
  2. To have an independent Activity Room where the Seniors could have games like table tennis, carom, chess, playing cards, newspapers, etc. etc. on a regular basis – this should be a hub of activities like any senior centers run by the State in various localities. This would benefit not only the Seniors but also the juniors who could mingle with the seniors and learn from their experiences.

NB:  THIS IS A SELF-SUPPORTING GROUP – YOU ARE WELCOME TO CONTRIBUTE GENEROUSLY TO ENHANCE IT FURTHER – ALL CONTRIBUTIONS ARE TAX FREE – WRITE CHECKS TO “HSCF” IN MEMO KINDLY WRITE : “NEW AGE GROUP” and mail it to :
