This Friday, our speaker will be David Robinson, the CMPD Deputy Chief.
Note: we will meet at Temple Beth El, 5101 Providence Road,
Charlotte, in Shalom Park, on account of the unavailability of the Providence United Methodist Church. Due to security concerns, you must enter the main entrance to Shalom Park from Providence Road. Turn right at the end of the entrance roadway to access the parking lot of Temple Beth El (access from Providence Road directly into the parking lot of Temple Beth El is blocked). Have your 2024 membership card available for inspection as you approach the entrance door of the temple, where Senior Scholars greeters will be stationed. In the lobby, additional greeters will direct you to the room where we will meet. Feel free to bring your own beverage, as none will be provided.
If you are a new member of Senior Scholars, please consider volunteering in
order to get to know more of our members. Information about volunteer
opportunities in Senior Scholars can be accessed by means of the Volunteer
Info button on our website.
