Hopewell Culture NHP Virtual Junior Ranger

The Hopewell Culture National Historical Park Junior Ranger program is now available online! Here you'll find some of the activities from our paper booklet in a digital format. Some sections have the option of printing the activities out, but if you don't have a printer, don't worry! Just follow the online instructions and you can record your answers on a blank piece of paper and review your answers at the end. On your next visit to the park, show a ranger your work so you can get your actual Hopewell Culture National Historical Park Junior Ranger badge!

 

 

Junior Archeologist Program

The Hopewell Culture National Historical Park Junior Archeologist program is now available! Junior Archeologist booklets can be obtained at the park's visitor center or by requesting one be mailed to you.
