Are you ready to get out and Explore Your Outdoors Tillamook County? Our coalition partners have created a fun adventure game to help you discover (or rediscover) the natural treasures, trails and side trips in our area.
After months of uncertainty and being cooped up indoors, we know people are ready to get outside and moving. With social distancing as important as ever, the Explore Your Outdoors bingo adventure provides a healthful way for families to get active outdoors and gain a new perspective.
To make it fun and easy, our team has assembled a list of 24 area locations and activity suggestions for local day trips and outings. Most locations are family-friendly and highly accessible to people of all abilities, and game information and materials are available in both English and Spanish.
HOW to PLAY – Visit the locations on the BINGO card and check them off as you go. Online cards are available if you want to play online; actual cards are available if you prefer that option. If you get five in a row, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, you can enter to win a prize from Tillamook County Wellness! Anyone who gets a blackout (i.e. visits all the locations) will be entered to win a BIG PRIZE. The adventure runs August 1 – September 25, 2020.

PLAY it SAFE – Please follow all necessary safety and distancing guidelines. Avoid overcrowded areas by scheduling outings on weekdays when possible. Be prepared for changes in weather; take plenty of water and healthy snacks. Keep in mind that some services, including restrooms, running water, and trash cans may not be available at all locations. Pack it in, pack it out. Recreate responsibly – leaving places better than you found them.
