JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.—The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) staffed offices and buildings will close both Thursday and Friday, Nov. 24-25, in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. Visitors should note that in cases where indoor facility closures apply, the rest of the areas, including trails, boat launches and other outdoor facilities, where applicable, will still be available for use. Any hiking, hunting, or fishing activity normally permitted on the areas may still be conducted.
The following closures apply in the Kansas City and Northwest Regions:
The Friday closures are to comply with Executive Order 22-06, signed by Governor Michael L. Parson, which advises that state offices will be closed on Friday, Nov. 25.
All MDC facilities will return to regular operation schedules starting Saturday, Nov. 26.
