The National Park Service also offers a Web Ranger program so even if you are not able to visit a national park you can still be a web ranger.  This web-safe environment collects no personal information.  Web Rangers complete an activity and receive a secret code word.  After completing an adventure (5 activities) the secret words can be redeemed for a reward.
