If you’re looking for family-friendly fun Saturday, perhaps a Missouri State Park will fit the bill.

Saturday is Kids to Parks Day. This national event is sponsored by the National Park Trust and endorsed by Missouri State Parks. More than 100,000 parks throughout the nation will be participating.

Missouri is home to award-winning state and local parks that provide an opportunity for children to engage in active lifestyles, while experiencing all that nature has to offer. Events at state parks throughout the state are sponsored by Missouri State Parks on May 20 to encourage families to take an outdoor adventure at a state park or historic site.

Events being held in state parks on are listed at mostateparks.com/events.

Missouri State Parks is celebrating 100 years in 2017. Visitors can experience all the park system has to offer with the Centennial Passport. Visit mostateparks.com/passport for more information.
