Earth Day

4/22/2023 | Thousand Hills State Park | Kirksville, MO

Come on out to Thousand Hills State Park to celebrate Earth Day on Saturday, April 22!

Local organizations will have stations and activities set up around the beach parking lot and the paved trail. Come connect with the Earth and nature through unique opportunities facilitated by community members! There will be activities and educational booths for all ages at this free event!

SB40, a local nonprofit, will be selling snacks and drinks as a fundraiser during the event. The Missouri Department of Conservation will be providing fishing opportunities along the shore just past the beach showerhouse and at the ADA accessible fishing dock. (Signs will direct visitors to these locations.)

This event was created in partnership between Thousand Hills State Park, the Adair County Public Library, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, and the city of Kirksville. Other organizations are joining to provide educational opportunities for all attendees.

In the event of inclement weather, activities will be moved to the Rieger Armory, located at 500 S. Elson St.
