Fort Riley’s Directorate of Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation is scheduled to begin a conversion project of Riley’s Conference Center, 446 Seitz Drive this summer to a multi-functional recreation center facility.

David Roudybush, director of Fort Riley Family & MWR explains “the goal is to provide a space that enhances the quality of life for our families and still provides a venue for meetings and unit functions. Once the conversion is complete, the Recreation Center will remain the primary location for Town Hall meetings, Victory Welcome briefs and hosting large venues such as the Victory Banquet.

Key dates during the transition of the facility include:

. Currently, no new events requiring food and beverage are being accepted with an execution date after April 30.

• The final Dinner to Go will be March 28
• During the April 10 town hall, attendees will be invited to share their ideas regarding the facility conversion and future operations
• The last lunch buffet will be April 30

Riley’s Conference Center will temporarily close July 1 to facilitate minor renovations and installation of equipment and will reopen Oct. 1. On August 1, Family & MWR staff will begin scheduling official meetings to be held during Fiscal year 2020,and on Sept. 1, staff will begin scheduling all reservations for October and beyond.
