If you are not a military family, getting onto Fort Knox is not something to fret about or be anxious over. It really is a simple process.  Please come to a gate on Fort Knox, show the guard your photo ID. They will scan the back of your license and you will be allowed to enter the base.

Location: Fort Knox, Harmon Hall, 1720 Morande Street (across from Burger King)

Info: holidaybazaar@fortknoxscc.org

 

Author Steve Berry at Barr Library (Fort Knox)

If you are not military, you are welcome to attend.  Simply drive to Fort Knox, and upon entering the gate, the guards will ask to see your Driver’s License and they will scan the barcode on the back of your ID.  They may inquire as to where you are going on the installation.
