Tule Springs Fossil Beds Junior Ranger Program

Explore, Learn, Protect!

Junior Rangers help to preserve and protect national parks. They learn about nature and history, have fun exploring the parks, and tell their friends, families, and schoolmates about their adventures. Junior Rangers continue to protect the environment at home and at school.

Our Junior Ranger book is designed for children ages 6-12 (or Junior-Rangers-at-heart), with activities that can be completed at the park, at home, or during your travels. Our Junior Ranger program is free of charge. Badges can be presented to Junior Rangers upon completing activities in the book in person, or via mail.
