PHIL CAMPBELL, Ala. (AP) — Gov. Robert Bentley is in northwest Alabama on the fourth day of his tour of towns heavily damaged by deadly tornadoes last April.

He will visit the Phil Campbell Church of God Thursday morning to see the new church that has replaced the one demolished by a tornado. Then he tours the Phil Campbell Memorial Park, which honors residents killed by the tornado.

Next he travels to Hackleburg to join Wrangler officials and employees to celebrate the rebuilding of the company's distribution center that was destroyed a year ago.

Bentley's tornado recovery tour wraps up Friday evening in Tuscaloosa.
