Being a park ranger can be rewarding work, and there is a lot more to the title than many people may realize. Even though most National Park Service personnel wear the same green and gray uniform, we perform a variety of different jobs and tasks that cooperatively uphold our agency's mission:
The National Park Service preserves unimpaired the natural and cultural resources and values of the National Park System for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations. The Park Service cooperates with partners to extend the benefits of natural and cultural resource conservation and outdoor recreation throughout this country and the world.
