To become a Junior Ranger, come to the Welcome Center, and pick up one of the new Junior Ranger Activity Booklets and start your quest to explore, learn and discover more about Valley Forge. Once you have completed the correct amount of activities, return to the Welcome Center to receive your Junior Ranger Badge.

 
 

Many National Parks offer visitors the opportunity to join the National Park Service Family as Junior Rangers. Interested students complete a series of activities during their park visit, share their answers with a park ranger, and receive an official Junior Ranger badge or patch and Junior Ranger certificate. Find a Junior Ranger program at a National Park near you.

Now you can be a Junior Ranger even if you are not able to visit a national park. You become a member of a growing group of young people who are interested in the world around them and involved with their nation’s heritage….The WebRangers! Play more than 50 games and learn about your National Parks.

...and be sure to check out the Junior Ranger Gazette where you can learn fun facts, complete activities, and read stories about the national parks.
