The Thunder Bay 55 Plus Centre has a variety of drop in activities open to all those 55 plus. These activities take place all year round, except on holiday closures or as noted below.

You are charged a small fee to "Pay as You Play." These activities are run by senior volunteer convenors. The drop in activity fee is $3.00 per activity except billiards which is .50 cents per game per person.

There is no membership fee or registration needed for any of these activities and there is no instructor (you must have some basic knowledge of how to play or do the activity you attend).

There is 15 minutes allowed between programs for setting up rooms. There will be no access to a room more than 15 minutes before the start of the program.
