Do you have a passion for swimming? Join us out on the JCC pool deck with three time Olympic Gold Medalist, Anthony Ervin! Ervin will visit the Aquatics Center at the Alper JCC on Saturday morning, June 22, 2019 from 10am-1pm to meet swimmers and instruct a swim clinic. Guests can also snap some photos and get an autograph.

Ervin became the first American of African descent to win a gold medal in the 50-meter freestyle at the 2000 Summer Olympics. Later the same year, the California native went on to earn a silver medal with his team in the 4x100-meter freestyle relay. After retiring from the sport in 2003, Ervin made the 2012 USA Olympic team. Then 16 years after earning his first gold medal, he made an incredible comeback by winning gold again in the 50-meter freestyle and the 4×100 meter freestyle relay at the 2016 Summer Games. The gold medal performance at the age of 35 made Ervin the oldest individual Olympic swimmer ever.

In addition to being a great swimmer, Ervin is a humanitarian. In 2003, he auctioned off his 2000 gold medal on eBay to help the survivors after the 2004 tsunami.

The Alper JCC is thrilled to offer the opportunity for swimmers to get in the water with an Olympian this summer. Cost to attend is $49.99

Summer is coming and with this, you need to prepare yourself for the scorching months. Here are some useful summer tips that can prepare you for the hot months.

You can make use of some outdoor party ideas for your friends. If you are already planning an outdoor party then we can help you with organizing one.

How to Have an Amazing Outdoor Party?

Though summer gives you a break from chilly weather it comes with many health problems like dehydration, stomach upset, heat stroke, sun exposure, etc. These useful health tips can benefit you in this hot weather.

There are a number of summer party ideas that can help you in arranging an amazing party for your friends. Following our outdoor party ideas can help you in organizing an unforgettable one.

1. Do You Have a Date?

Before you even decide about the theme or venue, you must have a date in your mind. This would help you in having an idea about guests as well as in arranging victuals for the party.

Make sure you check the availability of your friends before you start making arrangements.

2. Do You Have Plenty of Friends?

Well, you need to have friends in order to have a fun party. Call your old friends and have a little reunion.

If you need to find a Jewish community and are new in Miami then we are here to help. Visit our site to learn more about our community.

3. Choose a Theme for the Party

For an amazing outdoor party, you need to come up with a theme that is fun and can be followed. Call your friends and discuss it with them. If you are having a mixed party then you can experiment with the theme.

A pizza stone grill will add to any theme. Check out how to cook pizzas with a stone grill for super tasty treats for your guests.

However, if it is a segregated party then you can have the freedom to choose whatever you want to.

4. Backyard Fun Ideas

Make sure you make use of the things that you already have. A backyard party is fun. You do not have to leave the place. You can have a summer backyard party by decorating your backyard.

You can call your friends and decide on a theme. Have tables arranged in the corner and ready to go for some mingling. As for food you can order pizza or whatever your friends agree on.

If you don't have a backyard, don't worry! You can throw a summer party without a backyard.

5. Arrange the Stuff You Will Need

There are a plethora of backyard summer parties ideas. If you do not have one then make use of the lawn. Get the stuff that you will need for the party. Have comfortable seats and all the eatables arranged on one table.

If your friends enjoy music then you can set the music system.

6. Make It a Game Night

You cannot have a party without games. Honestly, it gets boring when you only rely on eatables and music. You can bring the fun by having fun games at your outdoor party. You can set a board game.

7. Play with Water

This blazing sun can take all the fun away. If you want to make it certain that your party does not lack any fun element then add cold water. If you feel like your party is getting boring or your friends want to leave, you can turn the water on. Have some interesting water games or just play with the water to beat the heat. You can have the sprinklers on and just let your friends enjoy the hot weather.

Useful tip: You can ask your friends to bring spare clothing.

8. Do Not Make It Complicated

Outdoor party ideas are supposed to be simple and easy to follow. Do not follow an elaborated plan that can become uneasy at the end.

Just keep it simple. You need to have an optimum amount of food serving and let the guests help themselves. If you are taking charge of everything then there is a chance that you might not be able to enjoy the party.

Have all the things arranged at one table? Do not go overboard and arrange a buffet. Keep it simple so that your guests can enjoy. Balancing the workload is key to having a successful and fun outdoor party.

9. What to Do After the Party?

Well, to keep the fun going you need to think about the ways to keep it going even after the party is over. You can watch a movie with your friends or have long conversations. You can play games.

This way your friends will be able to enjoy the party even after it is over. Having a mess after the party is one of the dreading moments that you want to avoid. Cleaning together can also be fun.
