September surprises include summer weather…
A stellar September has included some incredible summer-type weather here on Beaver Island, making the transition to the Island’s Fall schedule seem surreal. While everyone adjusts their hours of operations, including the BIC Center, Fall and Winter activities begin to emerge. The Charlevoix County Commission on Aging’s monthly Sunday Dinners return this Sunday, September 24th starting at 11am with a delectable dinner provided by Dalwhinnie and featuring door prizes, special treats and renewed Island fellowship after a busy summer. Pickleball returns with a special ‘orientation’ meeting for interested newcomers scheduled for Thursday, 9/28 at 7pm. ‘Open-play’ is available on Tues, Wed & Thurs, and ‘group-play’ (meaning ‘come even if you don’t have a partner/team’) on Tues & Thurs 9:30-11am. And of course, movies are featured at 3pm & 7pm on Saturdays; the Arthritis Foundation Exercise Program at 10am on Tuesdays and Fridays; Games Galore on Thursdays at 1pm; and Computer ‘One-on-One’ with the ‘Computer Doctor’ Pat Bonadeo on Tuesdays from 10am-12pm.

What’s at the BIC Center?
The Welcome Center
The front room of our first floor is a Welcome Center. It is a great place to get information, grab a snack, connect to Wi-Fi and kick off your island adventure. It’s also home to the office of the Island’s Chamber of Commerce.
BIC Center Theater
The BIC Center Theater is the premier performance space on the island hosting music of all genres, dance, theater productions, movies, seminars and community meetings. Check here for complete information on upcoming events.
The Hangout
Our Hangout upstairs offers an informal gathering place for meetings, reading, pool, board games, video games, TV, using our community PCs and printer, and … just hanging out. Also there are studios for the community’s radio station…our very own WVBI-The Voice of Beaver Island.
