it seems those certain people are treated better. There’s people that get driving around and the bus every day but I like to go once a week to church many times I’ll be able to even they come to my house and they don’t even bother to call up. Well, many times I did on the first half hour to be picked up, which I didn’t mind doing, but they can’t have the common to treat me the same way? Apparently not. So even if see your Center, it’s OK for some people, but if you’re low on the Total pole you don’t matter. This has been my experience my life.

I love Bethel Senior Center. I go to ceramics once or twice a week. So relaxing. People are very nice. Have gotten together with a few ladies and we have a lovely time together having lunch. Such fun.

I have been a member of the Bethel Senior Center for 10 years. Since the new management took over 5 years ago or so instead of the friendly, welcoming and safe place as stated in their mission statement it has become an institution. They offer scheduled time slots for all activities and do not encourage any social or leisure time for the seniors to interact casually and form bonds. Very disheartening. I found the director rather cold and insensitive. I am no longer a member.
