MEET THE
MAJORS
Dear Friends, June 19, 2012 will be our tenth anniversary. Exciting celebrations are scheduled. The anniversary causes us to think again about Joan Kroc and the stupendous legacy she left this community. In the span of this past decade, if only there was a way to know how many swim lessons given prevented a future drowning, how many youth productively engaged avoided delinquency, and how many good souls escaped hopelessness through ministries such as Kroc Church and Celebration Recovery. If only we could know how many artistic and athletic skills have been gained, how many hours of fun have been experienced, how many new friends made, how many pounds lost, muscle mass gained, brains sharpened, songs sung and laughter enjoyed. You may not know that after Mrs. Kroc saw the Kroc Center in operation she gave another, even greater gift. That gift provided the means for additional Kroc Centers to be built in more than a score of communities across the U.S. In the western U.S., Kroc Centers are already open, or will in 2012, such as Coeur d’Alene, Salem, Phoenix, San Francisco, Suisan City and Honolulu.
KROC CENTER CORP OFFICERS MAJORS RICK & MARGARET PEACOCK
The best way we can thank Mrs. Kroc is to keep her legacy going and growing. As the San Diego Kroc Center moves into its second decade of service to the community, we invite you to join our team as a volunteer. The opportunities are varied and many. A bus driver became annoyed with his job because he had to wait 7 minutes after every run near an open field which ‘litterbugs’ had made into an unofficial dump. He often thought that somebody should do something about that unsightly mess. One day he himself decided to get out and pick up some of the cans and other debris which were lying all around. This improved things so much that he soon was eager to complete his route and spend all his free moments in cleaning up the area. When spring came, he was so enthusiastic about this project that he decided to sow some flower seeds. By the end of the summer people were riding to the end of the line just to see what the bus driver had accomplished by doing what he and others had only talked about before. Perhaps you would like to join with us to make this a better community by volunteering. You can do so by calling 619.269.1424. Thanks to the generosity of Joan Kroc and each of us coming together for fun, recreation, learning and service, we can be assured that 2012 will be the best year yet at the Kroc Center.
Nearly 33 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army each year through a wide array of social services that range from providing food for the hungry, relief for disaster victims, assistance for the disabled, outreach to the elderly and ill, clothing and shelter to the homeless and opportunities for underprivileged children. About 83 cents of every dollar raised is used to support those services in nearly 9,000 communities nationwide. For more information, go to www.salvationarmyusa.org.

YOUR KROC CENTER BY THE NUMBERS 2,500 People walk through the Kroc Center’s doorways of opportunity every day.
BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN POTENTIAL AND OPPORTUNITY Joan Kroc, wife of McDonald’s founder Ray Kroc, had a clear vision in mind when she gave The Salvation Army $87 million to build the flagship San Diego Kroc Center: build stateof-the-art recreational and arts facility in an underserved community to ensure that all individuals have equal opportunities to grow their natural gifts and talents. This 12.4 acre campus was built on a blighted abandoned shopping center lot, transforming the neighborhood, and bringing light to the community. The programs, as well as the building itself, were designed to stimulate the mind, body and spirit, to provide hope, and to transform the life of each and every member of the community.
4,500 Current Kroc Center members. 1,400 Children were offered Christmas assistance this season from the Family Resource Center.

Future When Mrs. Kroc passed away in October 2003, she left $1.5 billion - much of her estate - to The Salvation Army, by far the largest charitable gift ever given to the Army, and the largest single gift given to any charity at one time.
KROC CENTERS AROUND THE COUNTRY
Today, 12 Kroc Centers are open across the country. 12 are scheduled to open within the next 6 years.
BECOME A HERO The Annual Heroes with a Heart Campaign kicks off in April of 2012.

PRESCHOOL Encouraging Discovery, Equipping for Growth & Engaging in Prayer
RJ’s
Preschool Academy is a Christian Preschool dedicated to providing quality early childhood education to prepare children for Kindergarten and beyond.
PRESCHOOL
INFANT CARE 8 weeks to 12 months RJ’s Preschool Academy understands the importance of a nurturing environment that promotes development and discovery for infants. With that in mind, our infant care program is focused on creating a warm, supportive relationship between caregiver and infant to promote sound emotional development. We focus on sensory development; tactile, audio/ visual activities; singing and storytelling. Free play, manipulative toys and age-appropriate art activities promoting self-discovery, socialization, imagination and creativity. Our infant program allows for individual schedules, fashioned by the parents and infants themselves.
WADDLER CARE 12 months to 24 months Waddlers are transitioning from babies to toddlers. During this crucial time of brain development, amazing changes begin to happen including talking, walking and remembering. At RJ’s Preschool Academy, we have a curriculum designed to nurture and guide Waddler’s need for independence and safe exploration, as they begin to imitate and pretend play. At this age children understand 10 times more than they can speak, and our staff is sympathetic to the frustrations that come along with that. Waddlers are encouraged to free play, and structure is introduced with the inclusion of teacher directed art projects and themed lessons.

“My son has been reciting colors and his shapes at only 20 months and I owe it all to RJ’s Academy and his teachers.” “Avery’s father and I are feel extremely fortunate to have the opportunity for Avery to grow and develop in a facility such as the Kroc Center where the whole family can grow together by participating in a variety of activities and programs.” “We feel we are not just part of a preschool, but part of a community” -Waddler Care Parent “RJ’s Preschool Academy has been an amazing experience for my daughter and family. The staff and teachers create a safe, nurturing and educational environment where children feel special. My daughter is excited to go to school each day and even asks to go to school on the weekends. She talks about her teachers like they are part of our family. I’m amazed every day by the amount my two-year-old learns at school and am confident they are helping to foster a love of learning for my daughter from an early age.” -Preschool Parent
