Community Involvement

Please join us at the Texins Fitness Center to board a Senior Source bus at 9:00 am.  We will assist The Senior Source organization in distributing small air conditioners to clients needing a way to keep their home cool and safe during the hot Dallas summer.  We will remain within the Concord Baptist Church and assist in getting fans into client cars as they arrive, if needed to do so. Afterwards, we will have lunch at a local restaurant (at your own expense) and arrive back to the Texins Fitness Center around 1:30 pm.

The Faith & Grief Memorial Arch is a place of hope and comfort. The Arch provides people a place to remember loved ones each year during the December holidays in Dallas’ Klyde Warren Park. Attendees arriving to remember their loved ones who have died will write the name of their loved one on a ribbon and will tie the ribbon to the Arch as a symbol of remembrance.

The greens are the stars at the Dolphin Heights Community Garden in East Dallas, which for almost 16 years has been championed by a woman affectionately known as the Mayor of Dolphin Heights. "I got that name actually from Mayor (Mike) Rawlings," said Anna Hill, the longtime neighborhood association president. When she moved to the neighborhood in the mid-1980s there was "lots of criminal activity," she said.  She and a couple of other residents eventually decided it was time to take back the neighborhood.
