 Well, after years of hard work, supporters of Bemidji's Veterans Home gathered to celebrate their accomplishment and rally to continue their good work. Veterans legislators and supporters of the Veterans Home filled the Bemidji Eagles Club. Special guest speakers and politicians shared some remarks and thoughts on the project moving forward. Since the state appropriated funds towards the facility back in May, this was the first opportunity to gather everyone involved and to celebrate. This is completely an apolitical celebration of getting a Veterans Home in Bemidji, Minnesota. Veterans typically come from everywhere, all walks, all lives, political persuasions, whatever. And so we just wanted to, one, thank all past and present legislators for their efforts in getting a Veterans Home here in Bemidji. While it was a celebration, there was talk about the work that still needs to be done, fundraising efforts are in full swing and donations are currently being matched by the federal government. Currently 40.1 million dollars has been raised for the home, but there is still more work that needs to be done. And the main thing that we have to do between now and March is one, have meetings to talk about architectural design and then secondly is to have, continue the ongoing efforts to raise funding. If you'd like to contribute and make a donation to the Veterans Home, you can call the number on the screen.
