MEADE, Md. \u2013 The newest Child Development Center here marked a significant milestone in a groundbreaking ceremony with leaders from the garrison, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and surrounding community April 20.<br \/>\u201cThis building is an investment in our children, an investment in our families and an investment in the future,\u201d said garrison commander Col. Yolanda Gore during her remarks. \u201cWhat happens inside the Child Development Center extends far beyond its walls.\u201d<br \/>At a cost of approximately $26 million, the facility, located off Ernie Pyle Street, will include developmental activity rooms, a commercial kitchen, outdoor play areas and advanced safety and security systems. It is designed to meet sustainability standards and long-term military construction requirements, ensuring durability and functionality for decades.<br \/>Designed to accommodate 232 children, the facility is intended to expand child care capacity and modernize services to meet the needs of a growing community. The project is being delivered in partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.<br \/>Lt. Col. Mark Pollack, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, highlighted the direct link between child care and readiness in his remarks.<br \/>\u201cChild care is a readiness issue,\u201d said Pollack. \u201cWhen a service member knows their child is safe, cared for, and in a quality learning environment \u2013 they can focus on the mission.\u201d<br \/>The new facility reflects the Army\u2019s continued commitment to supporting service members, civilians and their families, ensuring they have the resources needed to remain ready and resilient.<br \/>Construction is underway and ahead of schedule, with substantial completion anticipated in October 2027 and occupancy expected in early 2028.<br \/>This work, <span style=\"font-style: italic;\" property=\"dct:title\">CDC V: Groundbreaking for the future<\/span>, by <a href=\"\/portfolio\/1837505\/monique-mcfadden\" rel=\"dct:creator\"><span property=\"dct:title\">Monique McFadden<\/span><\/a>, identified by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dvidshub.net\" rel=\"dct:publisher\"><span property=\"dct:title\">DVIDS<\/span><\/a>, must comply with the restrictions shown on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dvidshub.net\/about\/copyright\">https:\/\/www.dvidshub.net\/about\/copyright<\/a>.<br \/><i>No keywords found.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/rss\/articles\/CBMickFVX3lxTE9HY3dENURSVFd5LUJaVnAtYllQaEVtTngtdWhIZUx3MldlZ3ZxcDhEcS0xX1B4SXVUeHNnUWJkeUhQMWVxa0dVakExYzB3OGFoTVJyVjRmMHdHbTdPY1FMeGU3Yk5jNTR6cU85VUhhVWpTUQ?oc=5\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(e.g. yourname@email.com) Remember me Forgot Password?
