The March 2023 Women Veterans Health and Wellness Retreat was a great success! We met some wonderful women and got to brag about our future events! There was a variety of wellness events to participate in as well as having the ear of important resources and town hall leaders. We hope you can join us next year, or attend one in your area. If you're thinking about it....don't hesitate...go!

Service dogs welcome. Our mascot Dawson did awesome!

Here are some pics of the future Meadow Vista Vets Retreat Center. We still have lots of work to do over next 2 years, but the kitchen is nearly complete and the outdoor sunroom is projected to be finished by mid July. The kitchen is working out perfectly for large doggy food prep and future cooking classes. Dawson is always on hand to give us assistance! Can't wait to start hosting veteran events!
