Around Town

Sleep, disc golf, fish, run, hang out with friends, and work out!

There's a shuttle to the mall and movie theater. On the weekends, events are usually planned. Some of the most fun happens spontaneously with floormates and friends.

Ultimate frisbee, movie nights, the usual sort of thing. There's also a bowling alley less than five minutes away.

The one thing about Bethel is that people often refer it to the Bethel Bubble due to the fact that our campus gives a gated feeling. It is hard to find things to do on the weekend unless you or a friend has a car on campus, and with that there are limited parking spaces. This was one of the areas that was difficult coming in without a car and not knowing anyone.

Bethel is located in a suburb of the Twin Cities in Minnesota and as such has many activities that are easy to get to. There are shuttles to take you to the closest mall and many of the sporting events and other fun activities around the cities. There is not much off campus within walking distance but there are usually plenty of on campus activities to keep you busy, from broomball tournaments to movie nights and everything in between.

A lot of times we play games in groups and do mini competitions within the friend groups. There is Student Activities and there is normally an event every Friday night. These events range from bowling, to movies, to girls/guys night, and many more!

The campus is very involved. there are a lot of programs that you can become apart of in each department.

There's shuttles that bus you to Target or the Mall throughout the day, so if you can't find anything to do, just hoop on for free.

You can go to the local target or the mall. Also, I like spending my time at the school dances (very clean), working out, spending time with my friends, long boarding, swing dancing, pool table, fuse ball, ping pong, etc.

Bethel has a number of event days throughout the year where students can attend things like skating, Minnesota baseball games, Minnesota lacrosse games, etc., for reduced or no cost. Bethel Student Activities (BSA), a student group, also organizes events on campus, such as girl's/guy's nights and Halloween festivities, and Bethel even hosts local bands at a free concert during the year.
