The Save the VA delegation from Hot Springs that met with Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki last week in Washington is holding a town meeting in Hot Springs Tuesday night to share highlights of the meeting.

The 6:30 meeting at the Mueller Civic Center Theater will include the Save the VA presentation given to Shinseki outlining its counter-proposal to the VA Black Hills Health Care System plan to close the Hot Springs VA Medical Center.

Shinseki told them in Washington that he hadn’t made a decision on either plan yet, but would like to make one “sooner than later.” He promised “due deliberation” in his considerations, and indicated he would probably be talking or meeting with backers of the Hot Springs center before making a final decision.
