Century College—A Treasure Trove of Services Available to the North Metro Community!

By
Real Estate Agent with Boardman Realty Minnesota License#90858

CenturyCollegePeople who live and work in the communities of White Bear Lake, Oakdale, Mahtomedi and North St. Paul are aware of Century College and recognize it as a wonderful addition to the community. Some long time residents still refer to the college by its old names of 916 Vo-Tech and Lakewood Community College (though now referred to as the east and west campus, respectively). Most area residents know one, if not dozens, of attendees and graduates of this educational facility in northeastern Ramsey County.

Most community residents are aware of the wonderful educational opportunities the college provides. But, many are unaware of the wonderful services offered by Century College to the public. Here is just a sample of how Century College gives back to the communities in the Twin Cities North Metro area.

Lunch Anyone? Two campus cafeterias offer affordable and delicious lunch entrees including soups, chili, pizza, beverages, and desserts. The campus setting is alive with people of all ages from around the community as the public is always welcome. If you're and early riser, breakfast is available too! Having a Party? Check out the catering service. For more information, please call 651-779-3482.

Manicure, Pedicure, Facial or New Hairstyle? All are available without the high salon pricing. Call 651-779-5756 for an appointment.

Brighten Your Smile! Teeth cleaning, whitening, x-rays, sealants and fluoride treatments are available on campus. To make an appointment or for additional information, call 651-779-5794.

Busy Bees Child Care Center Children aged 33 months to 11 years can be enrolled for part-time, full-time or hourly child care in the on-campus center. Care is available during the school year and much of the summer for children of students and members of the community on a space available basis. If space permits, drop-in care can be arranged. Call 651-779-3468 for additional information.

Check Out a Good Book The two campus libraries, one on the east campus and one on the west, are open to the public and books can be checked out with your community library card.

Need a High Quality Video to Promote Your Business? The Media Production Services can assist you to create a high impact ad without the high cost. Consultations are FREE!  Call 651-779-3370 to set up an appointment.

Take a Walk on the Wild Side Or just the Scenic Wood Duck Trail. Skate, jog or stroll down the public nature trail that winds through the wildlife area of the west campus.

I could use a pedicure and a video production right about now, but who would want to watch me get a pedicure?  Of course, put it on YouTube and everyone will watch it!  Seriously, it sounds like great vocational training and having a home nearby would be a plus.

Joanne-- Very Funny!! :) If you are a small business offering pedicures, a video could be just what you need! I was surprised at all of the services offered...Especially the catering and video production. Century College is a great resource for those on a budget.

Sally--It is amazing how many people are unaware of these great services. I used to live just a mile or two from the college and I did not know of many of the amenities. I had no idea of the catering or the walking path. The quantity and types of classes offered has expanded greatly and along with that came a variety of new services that can really benefit the community.
