Niantic plans ‘Pokémon Go’ events in US national parks
The game company has partnered with the National Park Foundation to celebrate the 50th anniversary of National Trails and Wild & Scenic Rivers act signed on October 2, 1968.
On a special page on its website, Niantic encourages players to visit any rivers and trails before December 31st, 2018, and send a postcard or publish an Instagram post about it. In exchange, the company will donate $5 for each post and postcard (limited by one per person and $100,000 in total) to the National Park Foundation and send the participants a special patch and handwritten note.
