Nature bingo dates scheduled at Prairie State Park

(From Missouri State Parks)

Join Prairie State Park team members at 2 p.m. the last Saturday of the month from March through December to play Nature Bingo. This interactive board game focuses on the natural elements of Missouri while showcasing the state’s plants and wildlife.

Instead of the usual “bingo,” participants will spell out “nature” in the categories of birds, plants and fungi, mammals, reptiles and amphibians, fish and invertebrate animals. 

Instead of numbers and letters called, a description or fact about an animal, plant or fungus will be given and participants have to guess what is described. When players fill in a column or row, they win a prize!

Dates for Nature Bingo are as follows:March 25
April 29
May 27
June 24
July 29
Aug. 26
Sept. 30
