Take the Challenge

The Junior Ranger Program helps young visitors explore and learn about Palo Alto Battlefield National Historical Park. The program is designed to be completed with the help of parents or other adults and is a great way to make your visit a memorable adventure.

To become a Junior Ranger, come to the Palo Alto Visitor Center and ask for your free booklet. Once you have completed the activities, bring it back to the visitor center to have it checked. You will be sworn in as an official Palo Alto Junior Ranger and presented with your own badge!

Virtual Junior Ranger

If you can't make it to the park in person, you can still connect with us from wherever you are! Check out Virtual Junior Ranger program and take a “field trip” through our website.
