Senior Meals Program Moves to BCC

The Bend Senior Meal Program is moving. The change was originally upsetting to some seniors. The meals will be served at the Bend Community Center, instead of the Bend Senior Center starting next Monday. Initially there was a lot of concern from seniors about the change and possible transportation problems getting to the other facility. But Virginia Reddick with United Senior Citizens of Bend says most are onboard with the change now. “It’s funny that the people who never participated in the program are making the most noise. And we're like, where were these people? The people directly involved are pretty resigned and are actually looking forward to a change.” It was felt the Bend Community Center is more centrally located and has a larger kitchen and will allow them to serve more seniors in a cost-effective way.
