Historic Murphysburg Preservation, Inc. produced an exciting community event to celebrate Historic Preservation Month: The Murphysburg Treasure Hunt, a race to solve riddles, uncover clues, and explore Joplin’s rich history.
Want to take the Treasure Hunt on your own? The hunt features historical sites throughout the city. Each one is tied to significant events and unique stories from Joplin’s early days.
Message us on our Facebook page for more hints to find the treasures.
“We wanted to create an event that brings people together and showcase the historic treasures of our community,” said Paula Callihan, a representative of Historic Murphysburg Preservation, Inc. “The Murphysburg Treasure Hunt is a fun way to explore Joplin’s past and learn about our boomtown history.”
Good luck !!!
