Bingen Centennial Gameshow: A Sense of Place Pop-Up, September 14th
Bingen, WA (Aug. 25, 2024) — The Sense of Place program announces the Bingen Centennial Gameshow, an interactive event to celebrate a century of history, community spirit, and Bingen locals. Hosted by Sarah Fox of Sense of Place, the event swaps traditional festivities for a lively mix of storytelling, trivia, and friendly competition.
“When the City of Bingen reached out about celebrating 100 years, it seemed like a perfect opportunity to have some fun. We’ve got a town with historic feuds, present-day heroes, paranormal encounters and that’s just the beginning!” – Sarah Fox, host/curator of Sense of Place.
The Bingen Centennial Gameshow will dig into the unexpected and under-told stories of the town and its people. Audience members will have the chance to play trivia, win prizes, and discover Bingen's past, present, and future from the people who know it best – locals. Special guests include:
Mayor Catherine Kiewit and former Mayors, "Bingen Betty" and Brian Prigel
Quinton Deo and Representatives from the Bingen Volunteer Fire Dept
Cristian Olivares, Civic Engagement at WAGAP
James Szubski of Margie’s Outdoor Store
Music from Terry Wake
Support for this event was provided by the City of Bingen Lodging Tax and a grant from the BNSF Foundation.
