Junior Rangers Program - 9-12 years

The C&O Canal is a historical treasure filled with many wonderful resources. We hope you will explore this national park and unlock the treasures that are waiting to be discovered. You can learn about nature, geology, history and man-made structures by using this booklet as a guide.

Junior Rangers are special people because they have decided to take an active role in the National Park Service Mission, "to preserve and protect our natural, cultural and recreational resources for this and future generations."

If you are between the ages of 9 and 12, you can become a Junior Ranger by downloading the PDF file here and completing five of the activities in the book.
