How Do I Become a John Day Fossil Beds Junior Ranger?
John Day Fossil Beds Junior Ranger badges are awarded to children who visit the park and attend a ranger-led program along with correctly completing at least 5 of the activities in our Junior Ranger booklet. Booklets are available from a ranger at the Thomas Condon Paleontology Center, north of Dayville on Highway 19. When children are finished with the booklet, they can take it to any ranger they see to have them check their answers and to receive their badge.
