Can't Make It to the Park?

We'll Come to You!

Looking for and engaging educational experience for your students? How about a Ranger program in your classroom!

Palo Alto Battlefield is pleased to offer a variety of offsite programs at area schools and community centers. We can also run a Ranger booth at your next career day or community event.

Please inquire about offsite Ranger programs at least two weeks in advance. Presentation venues 20 miles or more away from the park require more advanced notice. For information about availability and scheduling, call 956-541-2785 ext. 332 or email us.
