The Schedule Is Not Fixed; the Building Is
The question asks for a recurring event time, but a bingo night is a scheduled activity, not a permanent feature of the building. The Knights of Columbus hall in Methuen, Massachusetts sits at a fixed point on the map; the days and hours when bingo runs are set by the local council and change seasonally, around holidays, and when volunteer availability shifts. No published reference source can guarantee a session time that will still be correct when a reader arrives.
What can be stated with confidence is the venue's geographic position. Methuen is a city in Essex County, in the northeastern corner of Massachusetts, along the New Hampshire border. The Knights of Columbus council hall there is a physical address, and any reader with that address can measure their own distance to it. This article explains how to do that without guessing a starting point.
Why a Fixed Location and a Recurring Event Are Different Problems
A building's coordinates do not change. A bingo schedule does. The two are often confused in search queries, because a person asking "when does the Knights of Columbus in Methuen have bingo" is really asking two things at once: where is the hall, and what is the current session calendar. Only the first half has a stable, publicly documented answer.
The second half is governed by the local council's event planning. Bingo nights are typically set by a volunteer committee, printed on a monthly or seasonal flyer, posted at the hall, and sometimes distributed through a parish bulletin or a council newsletter. None of those channels is a permanent public record, and none is reproduced here.
Straight-Line Distance and Why It Is Not Your Drive
Any distance figure this article could offer would be a great-circle measurement: the shortest path over the earth's surface between two coordinate pairs. That number is useful for understanding relative position, but it is not the distance a car travels. Roads bend around rivers, state borders, and built-up areas, so the driven route is always longer than the straight line.
This article does not publish road mileage, driving time, or routing instructions. Those figures depend on a specific starting address, the time of day, construction, and the route a navigation tool selects. No single number can serve every reader.
| Reference Point | Straight-Line Miles | Measurement Type |
|---|---|---|
| No distance pairs are available for this venue | — | great-circle |
The table above is empty because no coordinate-to-coordinate distance pairs were supplied for this specific hall. Rather than invent a figure for a city pair that was not measured, the honest answer is that this article cannot state the straight-line distance from any named reference city to the Knights of Columbus hall in Methuen.
What the Venue's Coordinates Can Still Tell You
Methuen's position is fixed. It lies in the Merrimack Valley, north of the city of Lawrence and south of the New Hampshire state line. The city is part of the Greater Boston commuting region, though it sits roughly twenty-five miles north of downtown Boston as a straight-line reference — a figure that is illustrative only and was not drawn from a measured pair in this article's reference set.
Because Methuen borders New Hampshire, readers approaching from the north cross a state boundary. That crossing does not change the hall's coordinates, but it does change the road network, the signage, and sometimes the route a mapping tool chooses. A reader in southern New Hampshire may be closer in straight-line terms than someone in a western Boston suburb, yet face a longer drive because of how the Merrimack River and the interstate corridors shape the available roads.
If the Query Says "Me" or "My Location"
The phrase "from me" cannot be resolved. A venue's position is fixed; a reader's position is not. No article can know where the person reading it is standing, and guessing a city would produce a distance that is wrong for most readers and misleading for all of them.
The correct method is to treat the venue as the fixed point and the reader as the variable. Take the hall's street address from the Knights of Columbus Methuen council's own published contact page, enter it into any mapping application, and let the tool measure from the reader's actual current location. That produces a route-specific distance and a travel time that are accurate for that reader at that moment. No static article can do that job.
How to Find the Current Bingo Schedule
The authoritative source for session days and start times is the Methuen Knights of Columbus council itself. The council typically posts its bingo calendar on a bulletin board at the hall, in a printed flyer available at the venue, and sometimes on a social media page or a parish bulletin. The key is to look for the most recently dated posting, because older flyers often remain in circulation after the schedule has changed.
Before travelling, a reader should confirm three things: the next scheduled bingo date, the door-opening time versus the first-game time, and whether the session is open to the public or restricted to members and guests. Each of those details is controlled by the local council and none is a permanent fact.
What Governs a Bingo Night's Timing
Bingo sessions at a fraternal hall are shaped by practical constraints. The hall must be booked, volunteers must be scheduled, prize structures must be set, and the session must fit within local rules for charitable gaming in Massachusetts. Those rules are administered at the state level, and the local council must operate within them, but the specific night of the week is a local choice.
That is why two Knights of Columbus councils in neighboring towns can run bingo on entirely different nights. There is no universal Knights of Columbus bingo schedule. Each council sets its own, and the Methuen council's choice is knowable only by checking that council's current posting.
What to Confirm Before You Go
Three items change without notice and should be verified on the day of travel. First, confirm the session is running at all — holiday weekends and summer months often have gaps. Second, confirm the start time, because door opening and first ball call are different moments. Third, confirm the address and any parking or entry instructions, since fraternal halls sometimes use a side door or a rear lot that is not obvious from the street.
The channel that holds the current answer is the Methuen Knights of Columbus council's own contact page or a phone call to the hall's published number. No third-party site, including this one, can guarantee a schedule that a volunteer committee can change with a single vote.
FAQ
Does this article list the bingo nights for the Methuen Knights of Columbus?
No. The session calendar is set by the local council and changes seasonally. This article does not publish days or times, because any printed schedule would be a snapshot that could be outdated before a reader arrives. The authoritative source is the council's own current posting at the hall or on its contact page.
Can this article tell me how far the hall is from my house?
No. Your starting point is not known to this article, and no distance pair for this venue was supplied in the reference set. The correct method is to take the hall's published address and measure from your own location in a mapping application, which will give you a route-specific distance and travel time.
Why is the straight-line distance different from the drive?
A straight-line measurement is the shortest path over the earth's surface between two coordinates. Roads follow terrain, cross rivers at bridges, and bend around state borders and developed areas, so the driven route is always longer. This article does not publish road mileage or travel time for any pair.
