Midwest winters offer a chance to slow down. More time to catch up on books you’ve been meaning to read or watch that five-season TV series (ahem, Six Feet Under) you’ve been putting off for two decades.

But with fewer events and happenings around town, cabin fever can set in after a spell. Thankfully, a variety of Tri-Cities spots have just the remedy: Trivia and bingo nights.

After encountering several of these during the first week of the month, I thought you might be interested in a local roundup of upcoming weekly and one-off outings:
