 The Sanford Center in Bemidji is taking steps to make sure they're a welcoming place for all. That's why they say they're becoming breastfeeding friendly. The Sanford Center collaborated with the local breastfeeding coalition to design and open their new mother's room. The room is private and comes with couches, outlets, and a refrigerator. The Sanford Center also put in a television set that connects to the arena and ballroom so mothers don't miss out on any events that would be happening at the Sanford Center while they are in the room. We designed this to have this nice space and in a hockey arena too sometimes it's really difficult to find a warm space that mothers can kind of get away to you know breastfeed and do those types of things while they're here for an event so we think we found the the most perfect space it's nice and warm and it's inviting and it's a space that where they could bring their young children in as well. The mother's event is available during all events and to mother's room I should say and to access it simply ask a Sanford Center employee.
