Town Hall Meeting July 25
We invite you to come to our town hall meeting on July 25, 2024 at 6 p.m. at the Perkins County Fairgrounds. Our consultant Tim Groshans from Burwell and USDA Representative Sara Pierce from North Platte will be there to offer updates and answer your questions.
The USDA has obligated $13.9 million for the Western Sky project. This is an exciting step forward. With terms of 3.5% for 40 years, the pieces are now in place for us to move onward, but we need your help! The USDA considers Western Sky a "startup" and has required additional cash-on-hand funds in order to ensure our operational security. We need $3.1 million to begin construction. We currently have $2.2 million, reflecting expenses for the past two years and pledge amounts of $170,000 that cannot be included as cash-on-hand.
The confidence and support of our community has made this project possible. Please consider donating to restore nursing home care to the Perkins County community. You can mail a check to Western Sky at P.O. Box 966, Grant, NE 69104.
We hope to see you on July 25 at the fairgrounds.
