August 3rd marked an official visit by the Veterans of Foreign Wars National Commander in Chief Richard Eubank’s visit, luncheon, presentation and tour of the Veterans Home facility. Mr. Eubank was truly impressed with our Home. In addition, a birthday cake marking the 20th year of the home's operation was cut with an official M.C. saber. Officiating the cake cutting were Dist 22 Commander Hawk Shaw, in Marine Corp dress blues and the VFW National Commander in Chief Richard Eubank.

The VFW Retirement Home and grounds is spread out over 42 acres and rests among the typical oaks and palms towering with age and dignity, just as are our veterans that reside at the Home. You see, all that reside here have a story to share and even more so have contributed in someway to our freedoms we enjoy today. We are embraced with tranquility and camaraderie that is one of a kind.

Our guiding principle is to provide affordable, independent living accommodations to our Veterans of Foreign Wars, as well as their qualifying spouses. In addition we are providing an atmosphere that promotes independence, dignity, privacy and continuing opportunities and activities for our residents, their family and friends. We are dedicated to providing a homelike atmosphere to Veterans who have proven their loyalty and patriotism by serving our country.

Our belief is as we grow, so do our challenges and our possibilities. It is a most challenging and rewarding stewardship, that of helping your neighbor as you help those you are ordained to serve, the members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and their dependents.

We continue to strive to become an integral part of the community and continue to build partnerships with veteran groups, local and state government, civic and fraternal organizations, along with churches and individuals.

We value your suggestions and comments towards making this site easier to use and enjoy by all residents, staff, and friends at Fort McCoy VFW Retirement Home.
