Welcome to Pulaski County, Missouri!

hether you are planning a family vacation, girls’ getaway, man-cation, or attending a military graduation, we welcome you to Pulaski County. The year 2011 is the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War (1861–1865). Featured on our cover is the Old Stagecoach Stop Museum, which was originally a log cabin built in 1836 in Waynesville. The family expanded the home into a stagecoach stop and inn. As the Civil War ensued the inn converted into a hospital. During this time the town and county’s loyalty were for the South. The courthouse flew the Confederate flag until Union Forces marched into Waynesville, assuming control of several counties. The Union built Fort Waynesville (a historic marker is erected at Fort Street) to overlook the town, which enabled them to guard the road and telegraph wires between St. Louis and Springfield (Old Wire Road, now Historic Route 66). This was the major supply route to the Army of the West for the duration of the Civil War. The Pulaski County Courthouse Museum provides a wealth of information on local history and exhibits from the Civil War era, as well as displays from America’s current conflicts. Additionally, the John B. Mahaffey Complex at Fort Leonard Wood offers educational exhibits of military history from the earliest conflicts to our current endeavors in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Pulaski County Courthouse

Along with our rich military history, Pulaski County offers the perfect getaway for your family. During the summer months, get away from it all by relaxing along the Big Piney, Gasconade, or Roubidoux rivers. Most outfitters provide a choice of canoe, raft, kayak, or inner tube. Or cast a line in the Roubidoux River, known for trophy trout fishing. For licensed cave divers, plan a trip to the Roubidoux Spring and Cave. Festivals and events are held year round, including Frog Fest, TriCounty Fair, Old Settlers Day, Railroad Days, and Dixon Cow Days, just to name a few. Please visit our website, VisitPulaskiCounty.org, to view up-to-date listings of events that provide fun activities for families. Be sure when you arrive in Pulaski County to stop by our Visitors Center, located at 137 St. Robert Boulevard, Suite A, in St. Robert, just north of Interstate I-44, Exit 161. Our staff will be happy to assist with directions, maps, and vacation ideas. The center also offers over 700 brochures highlighting attractions across the state of Missouri. When planning your trip, be sure to visit VisitPulaskiCounty.org to view area links to hotels, outfitters, restaurants, and more. You may also book your lodging, airfare, and rental car needs online.

Experience the Beauty of the Ozarks

ulaski County affords the opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of modern-day life to glimpse a simpler time. Looking for a bit of history? We’ve got that. How about history in the making? No problem. Have a passion for outdoor adventure? Give us a real challenge! Golf? Fishing? Spelunking? Pulaski County has something for everyone. Much of Pulaski County’s charm rests with its link to a younger America. As stagecoaches made way for railroads and the Wire Road faded under the construction of Route 66, Pulaski County witnessed history and the rise of the Midwest. The Cherokee traversed the area in 1838 on the grueling trek to Oklahoma that would become known as the Trail of Tears. The Civil War was the backdrop

against which Pulaski County witnessed neighbor fighting against neighbor, while the Union Army built a fort in Waynesville and Confederate militias patrolled the woods. Railroads boomed and faded, planting the foundations for Crocker, Dixon, and Richland. World War II introduced the construction of Fort Leonard Wood, through which passed infantry troops bound for Europe as well as German and Italian POWs. The post has since supported and trained military personnel for every U.S. war. Escape the frantic pace of the interstate to relax on Route 66, where a winding country drive will remind you of the good old days. Neighboring Fort Leonard Wood

stands proud as the launching ground for thousands of military careers. Outdoor lovers won’t be disappointed. Take your pick from the Roubidoux, Gasconade, or Big Piney rivers. Spend an afternoon fishing, hunting, camping, or cavediving. The area is home to world-renowned fishing and canoeing. The hiking trails and community parks are ideal, whether you want a rugged challenge or a leisurely walk. Sports enthusiasts — we’ve got what you’re looking for, too. Multi-purpose fields for soccer, rugby, field hockey, and lacrosse exist side by side with volleyball courts, softball fields, swimming pools, tennis courts, and horseshoe pits. Pulaski County is also a popular geocaching location, concealing almost 40 caches.

Each Community Holds a Unique Charm

lossoming and thriving St. Robert, historic Waynesville, and proud Fort Leonard Wood complement the beauty of Richland and the railroad history of Crocker and Dixon. Perhaps most central to the heart of the county is its people. Friendliness and hospitality overflow throughout the city festivals and community events or with a neighborly wave on the street.

Crocker: Remembering the Railroads The days when railroads ruled America may have gone the way of the steam engine, but the town of Crocker preserves its railroad history with pride. From the railroad tracks that date back to the Frisco Railroad to the red caboose that resides in the heart of town, Crocker embraces its rail roots. What began as a small trading post in the 1800s has grown to be a charming Midwestern town surrounded by the Ozark hills and meandering Gasconade River. Crocker’s history isn’t limited to the railroads, however; the James Gang, the notorious band of criminals who frequently robbed stagecoaches, trains, and banks, once traveled the area regularly. Rumor has it that Jesse James had a cousin who lived in town. 6

Railroad enthusiasts, history buffs, and those who are simply curious are drawn to Crocker’s Depot Museum and Norma Lea Frisco Park. The depot was the last in Pulaski County and served as the mail pick-up and drop-off point for the rest of the county. Now a museum, the original structure is home not only to county antiques, photographs, and old train logs, but also to warm memories. The city park is home to Railroad Days each Labor Day weekend, and visitors can’t help but be charmed by this growing community. Plus, Crocker is easily accessible from local highways, making it the perfect day trip.

Dixon: A Panoramic View It may be a small town, but Dixon knows how to attract attention. Looking for the perfect day trip to gain a little relaxation or perspective? Why not try a scenic overlook that attracts artists, photographers, and nature lovers? Your refuge lies just north of Interstate 44, where Dixon blends nature’s beauty, outdoor recreation, and a welcoming community. Dixon is home to some of Pulaski County’s best camping, whether you’re pitching a tent or own an RV. Soak up the sun on the Gasconade River as you paddle its waters in

Richland: The Perfect Escape In 1869, when a railroad surveyor noticed the potential in a small area between Springfield and St. Louis, he undoubtedly had his eye on the miles of sprawling hills, the sparkling Gasconade River, and the acres of green forest. The town of Richland sprang up along the Frisco Railroad and became a livestock production and farming community. Richland’s proximity to local highways makes it a short driving distance to major shopping malls and facilities, resort communities, and several Missouri state colleges and universities. A day at Shady Dell Park will entertain and captivate any crowd. Located in the heart of town, this 20-acre park is home to covered picnic pavilions, playgrounds, sand volleyball courts, a horseshoe pitching area, tennis courts, and an Olympic-sized swimming pool. If you’re in the neighborhood, join us for the annual Tri-County Fair, held at the park. Carnivals, ATV rodeos, and national truck and tractor pulls fill Richland’s weekends with family fun. Love to golf? Test your skill at our ninehole community golf course. If you’re eager for adventure of a different nature, head out to the Gasconade River. Thirty miles of clear water winds its way around Richland to provide some of Missouri’s best bass fishing. Round up some friends and paddle down the river in a canoe. The average traveler has probably never eaten dinner in a cave. In Richland, you can finish your day

St. Robert: Pulaski County’s Business Hub St. Robert rises to life on Interstate 44 as a welcome destination for weary travelers. Boasting over 1,450 hotel rooms and a wide variety of American and international restaurants, St. Robert is the perfect stop as the sun fades on a long day — but it also provides a destination in itself. The youngest city in Pulaski County, St. Robert is the business hub for surrounding communities. National franchises and local merchants give way to the main entrance of Fort Leonard Wood, home of the U.S. Army’s Maneuver Support Center and training post for the Engineer, Chemical, and Military Police corps. Visitors have always enjoyed sunny afternoons in St. Robert’s parks. The town is proud of its dedication to community and family; picnic areas, a community and skate park, and playground equipment provide a haven for an afternoon outdoors. The St. Robert Community Center is home to car shows, the Pulaski County Fair, the Black Powder trade show, and many more events throughout the year. The paved walking trails that line the city complement the local landscape and provide an outdoor diversion for travelers. There are even park areas that pay proud tribute to the armed forces and neighboring Fort Leonard Wood with the presence of decommissioned Army and Marine vehicles. The authentic pieces make great photo opportunities! (See ad this page) Waynesville: City of Possibilities Whether it’s the beauty of a summer sunset over the Roubidoux Spring, the breathtaking fall foliage along Route 66, or the charm of the downtown square, Waynesville has something to offer everyone. Even Santa doesn’t miss “Christmas on the Square” in December! Waynesville’s possibilities range from historic attractions to award-winning fishing, from underwater caves to beautiful parks, from modern-day excitement to echoes of the past. The giant Frog Rock, W.H. Croaker, greets visitors as they arrive in downtown Waynesville. The huge painted rock is a Waynesville landmark that hints to visitors they’ve entered a city with a personality all its own.

Consider yourself a history buff? With a namesake like Revolutionary War hero “Mad” Anthony Wayne, Waynesville is as rich in history as its name suggests. One of the oldest cities in Pulaski County, it has been a trading post for trappers and pioneers, a rest stop for stagecoaches traveling west, and an encampment for the infamous Trail of Tears. It has hosted battles and skirmishes in the Civil War and established its popularity with travelers and day-trippers alike with the development of Route 66. Waynesville’s history is immortalized in several downtown museums. If modern-day fun holds more appeal, spend the day at beautiful Roubidoux Spring to experience the area’s best trout fishing at one of the few urban trout streams. The famous spring is also home to an underwater

cave that draws certified cave divers from around the globe. In 1837, the spring was a site along the infamous Trail of Tears during the Cherokee removal. Take an afternoon stroll on the walking trail that joins Waynesville and Laughlin Park for a refreshing tour along the Roubidoux River, or gather the family for a picnic in one of the pavilions to please any crowd.

temporary buildings. Its original mission as a basic training center began in World War II when five infantry divisions prepared for battle here. Additionally, over 5,000 POWs were detained here to work in agriculture and construction. Since World War II, Fort Leonard Wood has had units and personnel activated for every major U.S. military action.

A Vital National and Community Mission With its main gate bordering St. Robert, and the west gate bordering Waynesville, Fort Leonard Wood has become both an integral part of Pulaski County and an active supporter of the surrounding communities. Since its construction in late 1940, the post has become renowned for state-of-the-art training and support of national defense and has served as the launching point for millions of military careers. Fort Leonard Wood has rapidly grown as a training center, as a community, and as a partner with Pulaski County.

The post is home to the Engineer, Chemical, and Military Police corps training schools, as well as personnel from all branches of the U.S. military. In fact, the largest Marine detachment not stationed at a Marine base is stationed at Fort Leonard Wood. The post is also home to the U.S. Army Maneuver Support Center (MANSCEN), which develops concepts, doctrine, force structure, and material requirements to ensure the vitality of the Engineer, Chemical, and Military Police schools. Construction of the post began in December 1940 and, by the following May, the complex already had over 1,600

Preserving and Celebrating Our Military Heritage Fort Leonard Wood leads the way to the future while preserving the proud history of the U.S. military. Fort Leonard Wood is home to museums, memorials, and historic attractions that stir patriotism in all of us. Perhaps the most prominent is the John B. Mahaffey Museum Complex. Attracting over 100,000 visitors each year, the complex houses museums dedicated to preserving the history of Fort Leonard Wood, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Military Police Corps, and the Chemical Corps. The museums combine vivid, life-size exhibits and authentic relics, including old weaponry, documents, vehicles, and tools from all American military conflicts.

The Fort Leonard Wood Museum captivates visitors at its World War II Compound. The compound is a grouping of original barracks built from December 1940 through May 1941. Designed to be temporary structures, the buildings were built at a rate of one every 45 minutes. The museum also shows descriptions of life on the post dating back to the early 1940s. Additionally, the museum pays tribute to the career of the post’s namesake, Gen. Leonard Wood, whose career highlights include being the first commander of the Rough Riders (yep, he’s Theodore Roosevelt’s predecessor) and his appointment as the Army Chief of Staff. Some of Fort Leonard Wood’s most popular sites are highlighted on the post driving tour. Several buildings along the tour date back to the origins of Fort Leonard Wood and contain interesting bits of history. The Black Officers’ Club was built in 1941 and houses a restored mural that was painted by SSG Samuel Countee in 1945. Like many of the post structures, the Ike Skelton House was also constructed in 1941 as the post’s Red Cross Office. The original structure still stands and is now used as VIP Guest Quarters. Other original structures along the route include the old post headquarters and the Garlington House. Another structural highlight is the Rolling Heath Schoolhouse, which dates back to 1912. The Piney Valley Golf Course promises a challenging game of golf against the beautiful Piney Valley landscape. The 18-hole course is open to the public, year-round.

Get Your Kicks in Pulaski County

t’s undergone many transformations and is known by many names, but most of us have heard of Route 66. You’ve heard you can “get your kicks on Route 66,” but what does that really mean? If you’re traveling the 300 miles of highway that spans 10 counties in Missouri, it means tearing a page out of history as you travel through quaint towns that provide glimpses to, and even memories of, a younger America. The stretch of Route 66 that winds through Pulaski County is lush with brilliant scenery and breathtaking landscapes. Valleys cut through limestone and dolomite rock, and you’ll visit cities whose heyday was years ago, as well as cities just finding their roots. The tour will captivate travelers as they wind along the historic road in Pulaski County. The route through Pulaski County holds particular appeal for modern-day travelers, with its blend of historic landmarks and natural preservation. Scenic overlooks and rivers are interspersed with historic buildings. 10

Still visible is the historic Hooker Church and Cemetery, which dates back to the early 1900s. As you travel through Hooker Cut, take in the popular postcard landscape that was once rumored to be the deepest road cut in America and that shows the layers of limestone that had to be overcome to build the road. Travel through the beautiful hamlet of Devil’s Elbow and find out why lumberjacks cried in frustration at a large boulder lodged in the sharpest bend in the Big Piney River. They reasoned the boulder could only have been put there by the devil — the boulder and sharp corner caught the logs they tried to float downriver and created work-stopping logjams. Stop for lunch in Devil’s Elbow. Continue to Waynesville, and stop by the Old Pulaski County Courthouse Museum, one of two courthouses located along Route 66 in Missouri and while in the neighborhood visit the historic Old Stagecoach Stop has stood since the 1850s. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the building has served as a stagecoach stop, private residence, post office, and Civil War hospital.

Outdoor Adventure Makes for a Lifetime of Memories

Floating the Big Piney

ith a rich history, meandering rivers, breathtaking scenery, and quaint towns, Pulaski County offers the perfect setting for a family getaway in the heart of the picturesque Ozarks. Home to the Gasconade and Big Piney rivers and Roubidoux Spring, Pulaski County provides endless opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. Enjoy canoeing, camping, floating, hiking, biking, hunting, and great small-mouth bass and goggle-eye fishing. It’s all set against beautiful bluffs and colorful landscapes. Pulaski County offers nine outfitters that float the Gasconade and Big Piney rivers. Enjoy river floating, tent camping, RVing, or settle back in one of our many cabins. Several resorts originally built in the 1930s offer an escape from everyday life. Fishing opportunities abound with public and payto-use river accesses available throughout the county. The Gasconade River, the longest river in Missouri (250 miles), is known for the best smallmouth bass in the nation. There are few other streams in the country with so 12

much smallmouth water, so many fish, and as many trophy-sized smallmouth. The fish population is a result of a 1995 regulation change that established the stream section as a special management area for smallmouth where anglers may harvest only one smallmouth that measures 18 inches or longer. Anglers can expect to catch about twice as many 12–15-inch smallmouth in the special management area than they will fishing in other parts of the stream. The Roubidoux River is known for trophy trout fishing and is hugely popular with fly fisherman. Bass bugs, streamers, and crayfish patterns are the items of choice. Spin fisherman do well with crayfish crankbaits, Rapalas, and Mepps spinners. Big Piney, the largest tributary of the Gasconade, provides excellent opportunities for anglers to catch goggle-eye, smallmouth and largemouth bass, sunfish, and catfish. Nine boat access points are along the river, which winds through some of the most beautiful scenery in the Ozarks.

National Historic Site Remembers Trail of Tears The Trail of Tears was the relocation of Native Americans from the east, signed into law by President Andrew Jackson, in 1836. Native Americans were moved from their homelands, throughout Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee, to be relocated in present-day Oklahoma. This grueling 800-mile journey from Georgia to eastern Oklahoma brought 15,000 Cherokee Indians through Pulaski County in the fall of 1837 through winter 1839. They traveled 10–18 miles a day, including an encampment along the banks of the Roubidoux Creek and the Laughlin Park area in Waynesville. Laughlin Park was certified as a National Historic Trail Site and offers a scenic area to reflect on the hardships the Native Americans suffered, as well as the loss of over 4,000 of their family members on the trek. The Pulaski County Courthouse Museum offers exhibits commemorating the Trail of Tears.

Promoting the Pulaski County Experience

he Pulaski County Tourism Bureau began as a vision of community leaders to establish an organization to market the attributes of the county and shift some reliance for economic support from Fort Leonard Wood to tourism. A ballot was presented to the voters in 1998 asking them to approve a transient guest tax of 3 percent on lodging sales in the county. The ballot was approved, and the Tourism Bureau was created to oversee the distribution of collected funds for the purpose of marketing the attractions and natural resources of Pulaski County. The Tourism Bureau consists of an 11-member board of directors representative of the county. Each of the incorporated communities nominates someone from its Chamber of Commerce. Two lodging, two restaurant, and outfitters businesses receive a nomination, and the board chooses a local businessperson who has an interest in tourism. The Pulaski County Tourism Bureau opened the Pulaski County Visitor Center in St. Robert in 2001. The Visitor Center operates year-round and distributes free brochures of attractions from all across the state of Missouri to visitors and residents alike. The Visitors Center offers: • Over 750 brochures and maps • Free wireless access • Free piping hot coffee • Snack items for purchase • Souvenirs; Patriotic, Route 66, Missouri • Ticket sales for area events • MODOT updates • Weather Information
