  1. Where is the Senior Center?  We are located on Third Street, a block and a half West of the Paul and Babe statues, across from Wells Fargo Bank and TKz Closet.  Our address is 216 Third Street NW, Bemidji, MN 56601
  2. I need a place to have a meeting or event, can I use the Senior Center?  Yes, we rent space for meetings and events.  If you are a member, you can rent the space for half price.  We rent space for meetings, graduation open houses, birthday parties, etc.  Our dining hall rents for $75 for Members or $150 for Nonmembers.  Our Conference Room rents for $15 for Members or $30 for Nonmembers.  Other space rented upon request.  You can be any age to rent space.
  3. How old do you have to be to be a member?  You can be any age!  Our members currently range between 18 and 101 so you can be any age.  You can even sign up your grandchildren for membership to help preserve the Senior Center for when they grow up.
  4. How long is a membership good for?  It is good for one calendar year, January through December.  Our Membership Drive begins in November but you can sign up for membership at any time of the year.
  5. Is signing up for membership hard?  No, it is very easy.  You can click on the "How to Join" button above and print off an application, fill it out, and mail it or you can stop in the Center and fill one out at the front desk.  It's that quick and easy. 
  6. Will I be expected to be a volunteer if I become a member?  No, that is a personal choice that you can make.  If you can volunteer, just mark it on your application but if you don't want to volunteer, that is just fine also. 
  7. I don't feel like a Senior, so is the Senior Center for me?  It doesn't matter what your age is or if you consider yourself a Senior or not, you can still come and participate in the activities, become a member, enjoy our events and make new friends.  Everyone is welcome.
  8. Are the Bus Trips just for Seniors?  No, our bus trips are for everyone.  The only bus trip that we take that has an age requirement is the Casino, which is age 18 or older. 

If you have any other questions, you can contact the Senior Center at 218-751-8836 or email us at bccoa@paulbunyan.net.
