LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION commending Millennium Development upon the occa-
sion of hosting its Annual Senior Prom

WHEREAS, Senior citizens bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to
the increasingly active roles they play in today's society; their past
contributions and future participation are a vital part of, and valuable
asset to, the fabric of community life and activity; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its long-
standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to commend
Millennium Development upon the occasion of hosting its Annual Senior
Prom on Friday, June 25, 2010; and
WHEREAS, A festive luncheon will be held, and the Brooklyn Public
Library Services to the Aging Department is sponsoring the entertainment
featuring the Sidewalk Serenade Ensemble; and
WHEREAS, Established in 1993, Millennium Development currently spon-
sors several Department for the Aging congregate meal sites and over 20
satellite sites, housed within various community regions; in addition to
its DFTA funded sites, Millennium also organizes and operates the Marine
Park Active Adults, a two day education recreation program for residents
of Brooklyn ages 55 and over, with a focus on physical activity and
sports as a means to healthy aging; and
WHEREAS, Millennium Development has helped create the wave of change
in delivery of Active Adult and Senior Services in the Brooklyn Communi-
ty, and is looking forward to sharing its successes and helping New York
City move towards a healthy active aging environment; and
WHEREAS, Rare indeed is the impressive warmth and devotion to its
community and its citizens which Millennium Development has displayed
since its inception; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commend Millennium Development upon the occasion of hosting its Annual
Senior Prom; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
smitted to Jacqueline M. Florio, Program Director, Millennium Develop-
ment.
