LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -
The campaign for GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is slated to kick off a five-day bus tour of Nevada Monday.
The bus tour is scheduled to begin at Romney headquarters in Las Vegas at 9640 W. Tropicana Avenue at 9 a.m.
The tour is coming a weekend removed from Romney's official announcement of Rep. Paul Ryan, R-WI, as the candidate's vice presidential nominee.
Officials said its campaign bus will serve as a mobile campaign site to recruit volunteers. The bus will make visits in 12 towns and cities across the Silver State.
The tour will also make stops Monday in Laughlin and Searchlight. Neither Romney nor Ryan is expected to make appearances in southern Nevada.
