The <strong>Michael</strong>-<strong>Ann</strong> <strong>Russell</strong> <strong>Jewish</strong> Community Center is dedicated to the enrichment of <strong>Jewish</strong> life; fostering the spiritual,<br />
emotional, and physical development of its individual members through all of life’s stages and circumstances; and<br />
strengthening the connection with the People and Culture of Israel, along with other <strong>Jewish</strong> communities throughout the world.<br />
The MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> represents a model of acceptance, understanding, and diversity. As such, people look at the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> as a<br />
Center of excellence that epitomizes how shared <strong>Jewish</strong> values support a vibrant and evolving constituency.<br />
The MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> is a beneficiary agency of the Greater Miami <strong>Jewish</strong> Federation and the United Way of Miami-Dade County,<br />
and a member of the <strong>Jewish</strong> Community Center Association of North America.<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
We continue to marvel at the scope and activity that takes place at our <strong>Michael</strong>-<strong>Ann</strong> <strong>Russell</strong> <strong>JCC</strong>. As you flip through the<br />
pages of this season’s Program Guide, you can see the extensive programming that we offer…for those who are two<br />
months old to those who are 102 years old. From the swimming pool to the athletic fields, from the art studio to the fitness<br />
and dance studios, from the early childhood center to the senior lounge, from the stage to the balance beam, from the<br />
gym to the tennis courts, from special events to special needs, from birthday parties to discussions about political parties,<br />
from Kosher Subway to Elsie’s Cafe…our <strong>JCC</strong> has become that Center of activity, that central meeting place for our North<br />
Miami-Dade <strong>Jewish</strong> community.<br />
With the completion of our Social Center, our energies are now turning to begin the process of strategic planning…to<br />
determine the short-term and long-term needs of our demographically evolving <strong>Jewish</strong> community and how the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong><br />
may best fill those needs by evaluating its staffing structure and facilities. This effort, spearheaded by Ariel Bentata, will help<br />
us paint a picture of what our <strong>JCC</strong> will aspire to look like not only in 5 years, but in 25 years, as well.<br />
We remain so thankful to our Greater Miami <strong>Jewish</strong> Federation and The United Way of Miami-Dade, and sponsors, donors,<br />
and supporters, and to you...for your involvement and participation.<br />
During this coming program year, it is our goal to further YOUR involvement in our MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> through strengthening and<br />
expanding our numerous program and administrative committees. Our professional staff is eager to work with YOU and<br />
have YOU become an integral part of agency’s growth and development. Please do not hesitate to contact us so we<br />
may discuss furthering YOUR involvement in our MAR-<strong>JCC</strong>.<br />
As we approach another New Year, we extend our sincerest wishes to you and your family for a year filled with happiness<br />
and good health, a year that will see dramatic improvement in the economic well-being of our community and country,<br />
and a year that will finally see our dream realized of SHALOM throughout the world.<br />
SHANA TOVA U’METUKAH! May you be blessed with a sweet NEW YEAR!<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Ariel Bentata<br />

Payment for Private Lessons/Personal training<br />
Per MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> policy and for insurance purposes, payment arrangements for all personal training and private lessons at the<br />
MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> must be processed through a MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> registrar. MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> membership is required. Only approved personnel and<br />
independent contractors employed by the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> are eligible to provide personal training and private instruction.<br />
"Outside Professionals" Use of the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong><br />
No outside trainers, teachers, coaches, tutors, therapists, pros, etc., may utilize the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> for professional purposes - even<br />
in the company of and with the permission of a MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> member, without written authorization from the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong><br />
Executive Director. "Outside Professionals" receiving said authorization must comply with all insurance requirements and<br />
provide all required documentation.<br />
Personal Belongings/Lockers<br />
The MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> is not liable for the theft, loss, or damage to any personal belongings or property. You may bring a lock to<br />
secure your belongings in a “daily locker” in our locker room facilities, Scheck Family Gymnasium, or by the Program Building<br />
adjacent to the Feldenkreis Hanono Feig Athletic Field. The lock must be removed by the end of each day or it will be<br />
removed by MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> staff. Permanent annual lockers are available annually in the men’s and women’s locker rooms for<br />
$65. Visit the membership office, or call ext. 145/146.<br />
Security<br />
Security and safety are our highest priority. The MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> reserves the right to check trunks and vehicles for security<br />
purposes. It also reserves the right to check backpacks, lunch boxes, and other types of sealed or closed containers without<br />
prior notification. No weapons are permitted on campus. Among the permanent security systems at the <strong>JCC</strong> are:<br />
• Security gates and guards • Surveillance cameras, recording systems and monitors at strategic places throughout the<br />
buildings and outdoor areas • Signage that will alert all visitors that the premises are under surveillance • Emergency<br />
alarms that are directly connected to law enforcement authorities • A photo I.D. is required to enter the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> -<br />
access to the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> may be denied if appropriate I.D. is not presented.<br />
The overall effect is a high level of security at the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> that prompts quick action in the event of any danger signs.<br />
Bullying<br />
The MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> is a meeting place that promotes friendship, belonging, and camaraderie. MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> members, guests, and<br />
staff are expected to treat one another with respect and dignity and no form of bullying will be tolerated. Any act of<br />
bullying should be brought to the attention of MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> staff and may result in suspension from the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong>.<br />

<strong>JCC</strong>’s Sanford L. Ziff <strong>Camp</strong>us.<br />

and family interaction. Sports and fitness facilities are open to <strong>JCC</strong> members only on Saturday, from 1-6 pm. Business and<br />

Israeli Programs, Celebrations, & Films<br />
The Israel Programs and Resource Center is a central resource to strengthen the ties that connect Miami-Dade County Jewry<br />
with the People and Culture of Israel. The Israel Programs and Resource Center, under the direction of a Community Shaliach,<br />
is made possible through the combined efforts of the MAR-<strong>JCC</strong> and the Greater Miami <strong>Jewish</strong> Federation, with support from<br />
the <strong>Jewish</strong> Agency for Israel and Maccabi World Union.<br />
Shinshiniyim<br />
North Miami Dade’s relationship with our Partnership community of Yerucham (Israel) will continue to be<br />
strengthened through the presence of Ido Abargel and Mor Melker. These two post-high school young adults are<br />
representing their home town of Yerucham as “Shinshiniyim” - cultural emissaries - who bring the flavor of Israel<br />
and the Zionistic spirit of Yerucham to classroom settings in <strong>Jewish</strong> day schools and Hebrew<br />
schools, and to <strong>Jewish</strong> youth groups and organizations. These two young representatives of<br />
their community and country have deferred their army service by one year so we may<br />
benefit from their knowledge, enthusiasm, and commitment to <strong>Jewish</strong> Peoplehood. Home<br />
hospitality is provided to the “Shinshins” to further the cultural exchange nature of this<br />
program. Families interested in hosting a “Shinshin” (one male, one female) for a minimum<br />
of 1 month, are invited to call Dror Gershoni, at 305-932-4200 x128.<br />
