Ranger station

• The ranger station is generally quiet. Visitors can exit outside to find a quieter space if it becomes too loud in the ranger station.
• There are no films, videos, or audio in the ranger station.
• To the left of the entrance door is a junior ranger table where visitors can pick up swag and stamp their passports. To the right are two flags and an information page discussing the history of the American flag. Further back near the restroom is a tall poster discussing Gladys Noon Spellman’s scenic memorial. To the right of the bathroom is another poster displaying the history of Greenbelt. In addition, there is an exhibit titled “Quirky Quercus” in which visitors can visually examine the leaves of Greenbelt Park in glass frames.
• There are five animal skins that visitors are welcome to touch in between the junior ranger table and flags. There are also two taxidermy beavers, one taxidermy raccoon, one taxidermy squirrel, one taxidermy coyote, and two taxidermy foxes in a case.
• Please visit our Photos and Multimedia page to learn more about the beauty of Greenbelt.
