Did You Know?
Did you know that the Owings Mills JCC campus connects to a stunning senior community called Weinberg Village, which is home to about 500 older adults who live independently in five beautifully-appointed buildings?
The flagship building, Weinberg Village V, was completed this summer and will be dedicated on September 26. Weinberg Village is a project of CHAI, an agency of THE ASSOCIATED.
