A huge thank you to NIA Community Services Network, Councilmember Kayla Santosuosso, and Senator Andrew Gounardes for inviting Fort Hamilton Senior Recreation Center members to attend this year's Senior Prom at Dyker Beach Golf Course!

Our members had a wonderful afternoon filled with music, dancing, laughter, and great company. Events like these create meaningful opportunities for older adults to stay active, social, and connected to their community.

We are grateful for your continued support of Brooklyn's seniors and for making this special day one to remember. Thank you for helping create such a memorable experience for our members!

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for our Golden Whisk: Cookie Showdown! 🍪🏆 What a fun (and delicious!) event filled with amazing homemade treats, friendly competition, and lots of sweet memories.

A special thank you to our neighborhood bakery café, Paneantico, for generously donating a gift card prize, and to one of our wonderful members for donating the beautiful winner’s plate!

Congratulations to Matty, our official Best Cookie Champion - who baked Smore's & Chocolate Chocolate Chip cookies! It was truly a tough decision with all of the incredible, delicious cookies everyone baked up. Thank you to all who participated, baked, tasted, and helped make this event such a success. We’re already looking forward to the next showdown!

Thank you to everyone who joined us today to honor and remember Billy. It meant so much to see so many familiar faces come together, share stories, and speak so beautifully about him. Hearing your memories reminded us just how much joy, laughter, and warm presence that he brought into our center every single day.

From being the biggest cheerleader for our tap dance program and joining exercise classes with Jonathan, to sitting in his chair sharing stories of his life during our current events program, while of course enjoying his snacks and chocolate milk, Billy was such a special part of our center. He was a big part of our Fort Hamilton Family and you could feel the love for him in the room today. He will be deeply missed.

Until we meet again, Billy 🙏🏼❤️
