Facility Location

Known as "The City of Roses," Cape Girardeau is situated on the banks of the Mississippi. Cape Girardeau boasts a lot in the way of agritourism, with many farmer's markets and tourable farms. Antiques, art galleries and museums dominate downtown and speak to the unique character of the city. Residents also enjoy the natural splendor of Cape Girardeau's many parks which offer great hiking opportunities. The city's history is well documented, if sometimes bittersweet- Trail of Tears State Park commemorates one of America's great tragedies with its peaceful scenery.
