Veterans Affairs Outpatient Clinic ground breaking celebrated

Plans for the long-awaited Veterans Affairs Outpatient Clinic were celebrated Tuesday with a groundbreaking ceremony at 1106 Military Boulevard in Decorah, adjacent to Country Inn and Suites.  The groundbreaking marks the upcoming construction of the 17,000-square-foot facility that will offer to area military veterans a plethora of benefits ranging from physical therapy and retinal scanning to women’s health and mental health services. Tentative completion for the clinic is mid-late 2025.  After state and local dignitaries completed the official groundbreaking, local area veterans from the audience were invited impromptu to partake in the turning of the sod.

More information regarding the groundbreaking ceremony and clinic will be in next week’s Driftless Journal.
