FREE!!!

That's right.........You're not dreaming. You can become a Junior Ranger at Fort Raleigh National Historic Site without leaving the safety and comfort of your computer screen...

FOR FREE!

and receive one of these ultra-neat Junior Ranger Badges.

(The real one is a lot cooler than this JPG image and has a pin on the back so that you can wear it without having a monitor attached to your chest and dragging along a very long extension cord.)

The process is quick and painless...

First:

Read through these articles, and print them if you like:

Freedom Comes to Roanoke Island

and

Roanoke Voyages.

All the answers you need will be right in front of you.

Second:

View the worksheet pages and print out a paper copy. You can find the answers in the articles from step one.

Third:

Take the completed answer sheets and mail them to:

Fort Raleigh National Historic Site
ATTN: JUNIOR RANGERS
1401 National Park Dr.
Manteo, NC 27954

In just a few days you will receive your Junior Ranger Badge. If you visit the park in person during the summer months, we have a Roanoke Ranger program that comes with a great Patch (shown at left) for your jacket or book bag. When you arrive at the Visitor Center, ask for the Roanoke Ranger workbook.

Remember, the National Parks belong to all of us. Now that you're a Junior Ranger, you have a special responsibility to try visit each and every one in person (after all, cyberspace is nice but, nothing beats the real thing.) There are almost 400 of them, so you better get started!
