Greenbelt Park - Be A Junior Ranger (U.S. National Park Service)

Learn how to become a Greenbelt Park Junior Ranger

Each National Park conducts its Junior ranger program in different ways due to staff and other factors.

Our goal here at Greenbelt Park is to provide a learning experience and promote appreciation and understanding of the environment. As a Junior Ranger you will learn to “preserve and protect our nation’s natural and cultural resources for the education and enjoyment of future generations”.
Activities in correlation with the program are intended to engage participants in the National Park experience.
