Opportunities for Every Interest – 1199SEIU Retirees Stay Active, Creative and Fit Through the Retired Members Division
1199SEIU retirees are keeping busy with activities from lively dance sessions and arts and crafts to the relaxation of practicing yoga.
“I used to admire beautiful and expensive quilts. I thought, ’I could do this myself,’” said Eva Horn, formerly of Brookdale Hospital and one of the first students to join the 1199SEIU quilting class. Now Eva finds pleasure in creating her own handiwork. “Quilting requires lots of dedication and gives even more pleasure. You can take a scrap of nothing and make something beautiful from it,” agrees another quilter, Joyce Beadle, retired from Beth Abraham Nursing Home.
Retirees are also protecting their health with exercise classes. Carlton Williams, retired from Bronx Lebanon, joined the yoga class after recovering from a serious illness. “Yoga is energizing and helps keep me moving – and the camaraderie and encouragement from other retirees helps, too,” he said. He’s already mastered the eagle
pose and is now working on other poses that are improving his balance both in class and outside of it.
And anyone who’s attended a retiree banquet knows that 1199SEIU retirees love to dance. That’s why the new line
dancing class is quickly becoming one of the most popular retiree activities. Instructor Luther Gales, who has been swing dancing for seven years, teaches students the cha-cha, quick step and the electric slide.
“This is our version of Dancing with the Stars!” said Albertina Cobham, formerly of Menorah Home. “Instead of staying in the house, it’s a great way to get fit and meet new people,” added Regina Francis King, retired from Little Flower Nursing Home.
For a full list of classes, check the Retired Members Division calendar on page 4.

Dear Sisters and Brothers,
This spring, I had the chance to meet many new retirees at chapter meetings and activities through our Retired Members Division. I know that many of you are planning trips with your family and friends, but after you return from your relaxing summer break, don’t just sit around the house. When September comes, as usual we’ll have lots of activities planned. So come and join us in the fall and keep busy, active and connected with other retirees.
I also encourage you to come support our brothers and sisters who have worked hard on their creative work all through the year. So remember to attend the 1199SEIU Retirees Art Exhibit in July at the Union Gallery. There’s more information on page 4.
Keep an eye out for information from the Funds on more classes and activities, as well as the results of the June Retired Members Division elections. I hope to see you all in September and I wish all of you a great summer.
In Solidarity,
John Perkins
Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas,
Esta primavera tuve la oportunidad de conocer a muchos nuevos jubilados, en las reuniones y actividades de agrupaciones, por medio de nuestra División de Miembros Jubilados. Cuando los jubilados se reúnen, es una oportunidad muy grata para conocernos, de disfrutar de la compañía de los otros y de hablar acerca de lo que ocurre en nuestras vidas. También es una forma de averiguar lo que ocurre en los Fondos y el Sindicato y de ayudar a comprender mejor sus beneficios. Después de todo, si tiene una pregunta acerca de su cobertura de salud o su pensión, es frecuente que alguien en la misma agrupación tenga esa misma pregunta. Es por eso, que es importante que se mantenga en contacto asistiendo a las reuniones de la agrupación o simplemente yendo a la División de Miembros Jubilados.
La División de Miembros Jubilados no tendrá reuniones en agosto, pero cuando llegue septiembre tendremos muchas actividades. ¡Así que no se quede simplemente en la casa! Venga y únase a nosotros en el otoño y manténgase ocupado, activo y en contacto con otros jubilados. Y este otoño, hasta estamos creando un comité de actividades para jubilados para planificar las clases y actividades que quiere ver. Si desea participar, sírvase llamar a la División de Miembros Jubilados al (646) 473-8761.
Los aliento a que cada uno de ustedes se unan. Lo que tenemos en nuestra División de Miembros Jubilados es más que un Sindicato - es como una familia. Así que esté atento a la información de los fondos o de actividades próximas, así como a los resultados de las elecciones de junio de la División de Miembros Jubilados. Espero verlos a todos en septiembre y les deseo un espléndido verano. ¡No olvide mantenerse en contacto!
En Solidaridad,
John Perkins

It’s that time of year again! The Retired Members Division annual month-long Art Exhibit begins in July.

FLORIDA NOTES
Summer is here, and many of our retirees have returned home to the north, so the June chapter meetings will be our last until the fall. Our monthly retiree meetings will begin again in September, except for the South Palm Beach Chapter (Delray Beach) meetings, which will begin in October.
We are looking for a new meeting location for the Ossie Davis Retiree Chapter (Miami-Dade). Watch for an announcement of the new venue in the August/September Bulletin.
We also need creative individuals who would like to teach a class to our retirees. If you or someone you know has a talent or skill to share with others, we want you! Please call me at (561) 369-8340 (Palm Beach County) or (877) 369-8340 (toll-free).
In the fall, all of our Florida chapters will hold elections to create a 2007-2008 Leadership Board. Your active participation in leadership, planning and chapter activities will make it an enjoyable year for all.
Have a wonderful, safe and healthy summer. See you in the fall.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Silverberg

ARTÍCULOS PRINCIPALES TRADUCIDOS
Oportunidad Para Cada Interés – Los Jubilados de 1199SEIU Se
Mantienen Activos, Creativos y En Buen Estado Físico Por Intermedio de
la Divisiónde Miembros Jubilados
Los jubilados de 1199SEIU se mantienen ocupados con distintas actividades desde activas sesiones de baile, y artes y manualidades, hasta el relajamiento de la práctica del yoga.
“Antes admiraba los bellos y caros edredones. Pensé, “puedo hacer esto yo misma”, dijo Eva Horn, quien anteriormente trabajaba en el Brookdale Hospital y fue una de las primeras alumnas en inscribirse en la clase de edredones de 1199SEIU. Ahora Eva ha descubierto el placer de crear sus propias manualidades. “Hacer edredones requiere mucha dedicación y aporta aún más placer. Se puede tomar un retazo cualquiera y sacar algo bello de eso”, dice otra entusiasta en hacer edredones, Joyce Beadle, jubilada del Beth Abraham Nursing Home.
Los jubilados también están protegiendo su salud asistiendo a clases de ejercicios. Carlton Williams, jubilado del Bronx Lebanon, se unió a la clase de yoga después de recuperarse de una grave enfermedad. “Hacer yoga me da energías y me ayuda a mantenerme en actividad, y la camaradería y el ánimo que dan otros jubilados también ayuda”, afirmó. Él ya domina la pose del águila y ahora está practicando otras poses que mejoran su equilibrio tanto en la clase como fuera de ella.
Y cualquiera que asista a un banquete de jubilados sabe que a los jubilados de 1199SEIU les encanta bailar. Es por ello que la nueva línea de clases de danza esta convirtiéndose rápidamente en una de las actividades más populares entre los jubilados. El instructor Luther Gales, que ha bailado swing por siete años, enseña a los estudiantes el cha-cha, el quick step y la deslizada eléctrica.
“¡Esta es nuestra versión de “Bailando con las Estrellas!” dijo Albertina Cobham, quien antes trabajaba en Menorah Home. “En vez de quedarse en la casa, es una excelente manera de ponerse en forma y de conocer a gente nueva”, añadió Regina Francis King, jubilada de Little Flower Nursing Home.
Para obtener una lista completa de clases, consulte el calendario de la División de Miembros Jubilados en la página 4.
We all know that making it into the retirement years without gaining extra pounds is a challenge. But it’s especially important to watch your weight as you grow older. In fact, being overweight in your older years can significantly increase your risk of chronic medical conditions, including diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol, stroke and heart disease as well as various cancers.
But you can reduce your risk of these conditions by staying active and maintaining a healthy weight. Losing even as little as 5% of your body weight can go a long way in cutting down obesity-related health risks.
You can start by talking to your doctor about diet and exercise. Your doctor can help you determine weight loss goals and give you advice on the dietary changes and exercise that are best for you.
Then, begin making some simple changes. For example, you can:
• Start exercising by walking 30 minutes every day with a friend or in a group
• Join the Retired Members Division yoga or dance class• Check for active events for seniors at your local
community or senior center• Begin incorporating healthy eating habits in your daily
life by adding wholesome, fiber-rich foods such as whole fruits, vegetables and whole grains
• Try healthier ways to prepare old favorites, such as baking instead of frying
• Minimize the amount of high-calorie ingredients, like butter and sugar, that you use to make recipes you love
• Cook healthy meals together with friends and family• Pay attention to portion sizes
Before you know it, you’ll look and feel healthier!
Pullout: Nutritious eating is easy with What’s Cooking, the Benefit Fund’s healthy recipe cookbook. Many 1199SEIU retirees contributed your favorites – so go ahead and try them out. If you fill out a Protecting Our Health survey online at www.1199nbf.org, you’ll get a free copy!

A Message from
George GreshamPRESIDENT, 1199SEIU UNITED HEALTHCARE WORKERS EAST
DEAR SISTERS AND BROTHERS,
Dreams of a better tomorrow have been a consistent theme for many of our greatest poets and leaders. Dr. Martin Luther King’s “dream” has, of course, become legend, and schoolchildren recite his “I Have a Dream” speech every January 15.
We who have been 1199 activists for many years have also had a dream – of building a national union of healthcare workers with more than one million members. There have been million-member national unions of steelworkers, autoworkers and teachers, but never one for healthcare workers.
Langston Hughes wrote about “a dream deferred” that dries up “like a raisin in the sun.” But our dream is about to become reality in Baltimore on June 23-25, when nearly 2,000 union activists all across the country convene to found a new, one-million-member national healthcare workers’ union.
To its credit, SEIU has asked our own Dennis Rivera to lead the new union. We 1199ers know that there is nobody better equipped than Dennis to guide this new venture.
A national healthcare workers’ union is an idea whose time has come. Some nine million U.S. healthcare workers have no union, but need one – for their own sake and for their families and their patients. Entire states are without a single organized healthcare worker. This will not be allowed to continue. The national union will leave Baltimore with $100 million set aside to organize new workers.
Healthcare for all is on the national agenda. There are 47 million Americans without coverage and even more who are underinsured. This issue will be front and center in the national conversation with the impending 2008 elections. The new national union will raise $40 million to advance the interests of healthcare workers during the election campaign.
Dr. King used to call 1199 his “favorite union.” For good reason: we have kept the dream alive and are making good on it.
In Solidarity,
QUERIDOS HERMANOS Y HERMANAS,
Los sueños de un mejor mañana han sido un tema constante para muchos de nuestros grandes poetas y líderes. Por supuesto que el “sueño” del Dr. Martin Luther King, se ha convertido en leyenda, y los niños en la escuela recitan su discurso “Yo Tengo un Sueño” cada 15 de enero. Nosotros que por muchos años hemos sido activistas de la 1199 también teníamos un sueño – de formar un sindicato nacional de trabajadores de atención de la salud con más de un millón de miembros. Ha habido sindicatos nacionales de trabajadores de acero, de trabajadores de autos y de maestros, pero nunca uno de trabajadores de la atención de la salud. Langston Hughes escribió acerca de “un sueño postergado” que se seca “como una pasa al sol”. Pero nuestro sueño está por hacerse realidad en Baltimore del 23 al 25 de junio, cuando cerca de 2,000 activistas sindicales de todo el país se reúnan para fundar un nuevo sindicato nacional de trabajadores de la atención de la salud de un millón de miembros.Dicho sea en su honor, la SEIU ha pedido a nuestro mismo Dennis Rivera que lidere el nuevo sindicato. Nosotros los de 1199 sabemos que no hay nadie mejor preparado que Dennis para guiar esta nueva aventura. Ha llegado el momento de concretar la idea de un sindicato nacional de trabajadores de atención de la salud. Unos nueve millones de trabajadores de atención de la salud de los EE.UU. no tienen sindicato, pero necesitan uno – por su propio bienestar y por el de sus familias y sus pacientes. Hay estados completos que no tienen ni un solo trabajador organizado de atención de la salud. No permitiremos que esto continúe. El sindicato nacional saldrá de Baltimore con $100 millones reservados para organizar a los nuevos trabajadores. La atención de la salud para todos está en la agenda nacional. Hay 47 millones de estadounidenses sin cobertura de salud y aun más que están asegurados por menos del valor real. Este asunto será el tema central en el debate nacional con las elecciones inminentes del 2008. El nuevo sindicato nacional recaudará $40 millones para promover los intereses de los trabajadores de atención de la salud durante la campaña electoral.El Dr. King solía llamar a 1199 su “sindicato favorito”. Por una buena razón: hemos mantenido vigente el sueño y lo estamos haciendo realidad.
