Anyone can become a Junior Ranger! Ask a ranger for a booklet at the visitor center or entrance station. Complete the activities in the booklet, and return to the visitor center. A ranger or volunteer will help answer any questions about what you saw while exploring. Then, you'll say the Junior Ranger pledge to receive your official Junior Ranger badge! We're happy to work with your needs to earn a badge.
