We Are Champions: Senior Athletes in Motion

United Hebrew of New Rochelle is proud to announce a spectacular event celebrating active seniors called “We Are Champions: Senior Athletes in Motion”.  As part of this special salute to active seniors, United Hebrew will screen the Westchester premier of the award-winning documentary, “Age of Champions” on their Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Campus on Friday, April 27^th at 2:00 pm.  “Age of Champions” tells the story of senior Olympians - a 100-year-old tennis champion, 86-year-old pole vaulter, swimming brothers, and a team of basketball grandmothers  - and their incredible ability to perform and go for the gold at the National Senior Games in Sacramento, California. The film captures the inspirational stories of these competitors as they tackle the challenges of getting older with uplifting grace, humor and optimism.

In coordination with the screening we will also open an exhibit of portraits of local senior athletes.  We are now accepting nominations for this exhibit.
