Modern Woodmen of America Sanatorium Details: State: Colorado (CO) City: Colorado Springs Description: Modern Woodmen of America Sanatorium, Colorado Springs. Ten miles to the north of Colorado Springs, has been established the National Sanatorium, erected and maintained by the Modern Woodmen of America. This institution is for the free treatment of members of the society

MWA raised $6 million to pay war claims during World War I. As the New York Times reported, however, influenza and pneumonia deaths nearly caused the group's general fund to drop precariously from $10 million to $640,000 between October 1918 and March 1919. The group also had been touched by another epidemic, tuberculosis (TB). In the 19th century, the highly infectious disease had been the leading cause of death in the United States. In 38 years, the Modern Woodmen Tuberculosis Sanatorium treated more than 12,000 members (all of them male) at no cost. Monument Park, its site nine miles northwest of Colorado Springs, was later renamed Woodmen Valley. According to the Gazette of Colorado Springs, there were 16 other TB sanatoriums in the Pikes Peak region. MWA's facility, which opened on January 1, 1909, was not the first, but it was one of the largest. The region's altitude, dry climate, and clean air were the basis of the therapy. A hearty diet including six raw eggs and up to ten glasses of milk per day was prescribed.
