Per Department of Defense guidance, face masks must be worn by anyone on a DOD installation.
Individuals must wear masks continuously while on military installations except:
(1) when an individual is alone in an office with floor-to-ceiling walls with a closed door;
(2) for brief periods of time when eating and drinking while maintaining distancing in accordance with CDC guidelines and instructions from commanders and supervisors;
(3) when the mask is required to be lowered briefly for identification or security purposes; and
(4) when necessary to reasonably accommodate an individual with a disability.
Individuals living in DOD housing are also not required to wear masks within their own homes.
Canceled/Affected Events:

Affected Services:
- Fort McCoy Commissary
All Commissary patrons MUST wear face coverings when entering, working or shopping in any DeCA Commissary or facility. This is consistent with the DoD guidance directing all individuals on DoD property, installations, and facilities to wear cloth face coverings when they cannot maintain six feet of social distance in public areas or work centers to the greatest extent practical.
Children under 10 with their parents do not have to have an ID card. However, please limit how many family members that are brought in as there is a limit of 20 patrons in the store at any time. This is designed to help with social distancing and crowd control.
Please use the hand-washing station located outside the commissary. The store has increased cleaning and sanitizing of equipment and surfaces a minimum six times a day and when possible after each patron. A No-Touching-ID Policy has been implemented; patrons will be asked to scan their ID or allow us to use a hand scanner after verifying the ID, to limit close contact concerns. Please do not bring in any reusable bags, to limit potential contamination. Plexiglass shields have been installed at full service registers for additional protection.
There are purchase quantity limitations on high-demand items, which may include bathroom tissue, facial tissue, antibacterial sprays, wipes, and hand sanitizers to ensure more families have access to essential items. The Commissary may also limit the purchase on fresh pork, beef or chicken. Also, specials orders may be limited, depending on availability.
