This program is offered to children ages 6-12. To meet the Junior Ranger requirements, children need to attend a ranger-led program; walk a nature trail; visit a park museum or visitor center; pick up a bag of trash; or put recyclable materials in the recycle containers in the park. During off-season when the park does not offer as many ranger-led programs, an extra activity in the handbook will count as a ranger-led program. Each age group has different requirements. Once the requirements are completed, the child will receive a Junior Ranger certificate of completion and a badge. Gulf Islands Junior Ranger patches may also be purchased.
