FORT McCOY, Wis. (WKBT) Fort McCoy announced Wednesday that it will not be hosting its annual open house to celebrate Armed Forces Day this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“After much consideration, Fort McCoy leadership has determined that, because of ongoing safety precautions for the COVID-19 pandemic, this is not the time to host an Armed Forces Day Open House. Instead, the installation will focus on other smaller community outreach opportunities this year,” it said in a statement.
The event is usually the third Saturday in May at the Fort McCoy Commemorative Area.
