Tour of Missouri Pit Stop

Discovery Center is proud to sponsor the Tour of Missouri today! The longest stage of the race will end in Springfield after starting in historic Clinton, near the head of the state long Katy Trail.

Last year, spectators witnessed George Hincapie steal the stage and essentially the overall race during this flat stage. The race features three water ways. Edward Jones sprint points are featured in the towns of Stockton and Willard en route to three finish circuits around the downtown of Missouri’s third largest city. Discovery Center Springfield will provide a pit stop for the race around 3pm today. Come downtown to see the excitement firsthand or support your favorite cyclist!
