The Hubbard County Board recently accepted a $10,000 grant from the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs.
Hubbard County Veteran Services Officer (VSO) Jerry Bjerke told county commissioners, “Within the grant request, I had to submit a budget, a proposal on what I’m going to spend the money for. I’ll let you know right now, I put $2,000 in for a veterans event this summer.”
Due to COVID-19, Bjerke said it was unclear whether that event could be held.
His proposed budget also sets aside $4,000 for him and assistant VSO Darius Simon to receive training, “wherever that may be.”
