Elizabeth Price, Director of Shorewood's Senior Resource Center has been doing excellent work for the seniors of this community. It seems to me that it would take a staff of several people to do all that she accomplishes.
It's obvious to most people who have experienced the senior programs that further progress here requires more attention by the Village Board in terms of providing staff. I would think that at least 2 more people are needed to continue the good work. The Bill Benjamin fund could help carry the additional staff for the next few years for starters.
Meanwhile, the seniors can perhaps go into some fund raising to support more programs. Hopefully we can work out more coordination with the Schools as well. Let's see if the Village Board can act fairly soon on this.
I've spoken to no one about this until now, but I know that the Board must begin to show some action.
What about it?
