COMMUNITY BOOKINGS

Looking for space for an event or meeting?
See if Bugbee might be right for you!

Are you looking to have your next gathering or meeting at a spacious and homey facility? Bugbee Senior Center might be the perfect space for you and group! We are located in White River Junction, Vermont; just up the street from the quaint, historic downtown area. Bugbee Senior Center is open for lunch and activities every week day from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, however, we are more than happy to rent out our space after hours. If you can only meet during the day, we can coordinate a time for your group to use one of our extra spaces. Then you can stay for lunch! Whether you are part of a small acapella group or a larger quilting crew, we are able to accommodate your needs. We are extremely proud of the T.D. Bugbee Building, and hope you consider using it for your next meeting.

What we offer:

  • Perfect location with easy accessibility in and out of the building
  • Open dining area with large and small tables
  • Ample area to use for any activities you offer
  • Lots of extra seating to set up for presentations
  • On-site parking with plenty of spaces for your group
  • Many smaller areas for a more intimate gathering
  • Outside area for when the sun is shining
  • And most importantly, proceeds go directly towards helping seniors who utilize this space everyday, all year round

Frequently Asked Questions

The commercial equipment in our kitchen requires training to use and we follow strict food safety and sanitation standards. With over a hundred seniors that depend on our ability to provide food daily, you can imagine how important it is to ensure the kitchen is kept ready for business at all times.

Consumption of alcohol is not permitted at Bugbee Senior Center.

Generally, yes, we ask for event insurance naming Bugbee Senior Center as additional insured, with property, casualty, and liability coverage. This may seem like a hassle but that “one in a million” occurrence can be devastating for you, and for Bugbee, if it’s not prepared for. One day event insurance is generally inexpensive. Contact your insurance provider or search online for companies that specialize in this type of coverage.

Welcoming the community is core to who we are at Bugbee, and has always been part of the building’s vocation. We aim to be open and available to as many people as possible. Let us know your needs, and will do our best to work within your budget.

Most event bookings at Bugbee are self-serve. If you would like additional services, such as cleaning, staffing, or event promotion, make a note and we can talk!
