Open to JCC members and nonmembers. Space limited, sign up quickly! Community Investors: Rebecca & Ted Goodman The JCC is a place for individuals to grow and learn, whether it’s to work out, learn to paint or meet new friends at a Dive & Dine. We see our members through so many life changes from 12 weeks old in Early Childhood to our Silver Sneakers members and everything in between. Rebecca and Ted Goodman are members who not only use our facilities but also donate time and money to make this an even better place. The couple met at a Shabbat dinner at the University of Arizona Hillel Foundation. Rebecca was working for the Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona and one of her many projects included Young Jewish Tucson. She asked Ted to be on the committee and they met monthly to plan events, and eventually started dating. Since this program was a joint effort with the JCC, Rebecca saw the wonderful programs and services the J offered. Ted had taken a tour of the J with the Federation’s Young Men’s Group and was especially impressed with the Special Needs Continued, page 2 Continued, from front cover Taglit program. Rebecca was completing grad school and Ted asked her what she would like as a gift. She said she would like a JCC membership. He added her as his significant other and Rebecca says, “I knew it was true love.” The couple has now been married a year and a half. Although they first joined for the top-notch fitness facility, they have become involved with so many more facets of the J. Ted joined the Board of Directors and the couple recently became Stars of Giving donors and Legacy Circle Members, “because we feel it’s important to sustain Jewish community, culture, and much-needed services to our local community,” Ted said. “We could see how the JCC would fit every single angle of raising our Jewish family. From the Early Childhood program to the Weintraub Israel Center…and of course the Friday challah pickup at the Welcome Desk.” Rebecca said. She only has to walk across the parking lot to pick up this weekly Shabbat necessity. She added, “We hope to inspire others to support their communities – and anyone can do this at any age, no matter where they are in their lives. We are so lucky to be a part of such a vibrant community and we know this is due in large part to the many that came before us. We want to sustain this sense of community and educational opportunities for many generations to come.” To learn more about supporting the JCC, contact Director of Development, Tana Jones at 299-3000 x176 or tjones@tucsonjcc.org.

JCC Center View • May 2012 • Page 5 JCC Star Makes National Team Dakota Kordsiemon has been playing competitive basketball and swimming since he was six years old. He played at the TJCC Sunday Basketball league through sixth grade, helping the team win first place, four times and was selected to the TJCC All Star team in its first and only year. He has played club ball since he was in the 4th grade and now plays on a nationally known club team: DreamVision 2015. While playing basketball, Dakota has also been on the TJCC competitive swim team. Competitive swimming has helped him with his strength and conditioning for basketball. In August 2010 and 2011, Dakota went to the USA Maccabi games (representing Team Tucson) in Omaha and Israel on the TJCC swim team. He ended up winning a total 13 medals, most of them gold. Dakota applied for the USA Jr. National Macabbi Basketball Team, which played in the 12th Annual Pan Am Maccabi Games, held in Sao Paulo, Brazil over winter break. Dakota had to send in game tapes showing his ability in the sport to even be considered. During the summer, he received a letter that he was selected to represent the USA. The USA Jr. National Basketball team ended up with the Bronze medal, beating Team Canada. His goal is to make the USA Youth National Maccabiah team which competes in Israel, every four years. The next Maccabiah games will be held in Israel in 2013. Stingrays Make The JCC Proud! Congratulations to all age group state swimmers who attended the state meet in Chandler, AZ.

Effective supervision is the first and most critical line of defense to prevent drowning! Here are a few other tips to ensure safety around water at home and at the JCC. • Phone - Never answer your phone during supervision, as it will distract you from watching your child. Do carry a cell phone with you in case of an emergency so you can call 911. • Pool Water - Water in your pool should be kept at the upper most point so that should a child fall into the water, they can reach the side of the pool and are able to climb out. • Survival Swimming Lessons ISR’s Self-Rescue™ swimming lessons are an added layer of protection, teaching your child water survival skills in a completely safe environment. • Pool Toys - Keep temptation at bay by storing all pool toys in an area that is isolated from the deck, such that the deck is kept clean and clear. • CPR - Learn to perform CPR on children and adults and remember to update those skills regularly. For more information about swim lessons, please call 299-3000 x118.
