If you are curious about what happens in the local military facility, there is a chance to find out at a tour of Fort Leonard Wood, to be held from 9 a.m. through 2:30 p.m. Thursday, April 11.
The tour is organized by Missouri S&T partners Phelps for the Fort, Mid-Missouri Chapter of the Association of the United States Army and the St. Robert/Waynesville Chamber of Commerce. Attend by RSVP at 573-336-5121. The fort has undergone some major changes in the last couple of years. This may be the last tour offered for some time due to Sequestration funding cuts.
The tour is free and lunch will be provided at one of the fort’s dining facilities. Attendees will need to meet the bus at the St. Robert Chamber parking lot at 137 St. Robert Blvd., St. Robert, Mo., to depart at 9:00 a.m.
