Junior Ranger Program
Do you want to be a Junior Ranger? The park has a Junior Ranger program for children who tour the Visitor Center/Museum and downtown area. Ask for the Junior Ranger booklet at the information desk. When you finish, take it back to get your Junior Ranger badge.

At special events children also have the opportunity to earn the park's embroidered Junior Ranger patch.
