Junior Ranger Program

Children ages 5-12 can become Junior Park Rangers at Fort Smith National Historic Site.

They will have fun as they learn about soldiers, Native Americans, deputy marshals, outlaws, and Judge Parker. After completing 4 activities in a free booklet, they will be sworn in as Junior Rangers and receive an offical Fort Smith National Historic Site Junior Ranger badge.

Inquire at the front desk for the activity booklet.
