Junior Ranger Badge, Vicksburg National Military Park

National Parks are special places set aside by the American people to conserve the scenery, and preserve natural, cultural and historic resources to provide for their enjoyment in a way that leaves them unimpaired for future generations.

National Park Junior Ranger Programs connect young people to their national parks through many hands-on, guided, and self-guided activities, and cultivate future generations of park stewards and explorers.
