Junior Ranger Program:

Kids can become Junior Rangers by completing activities in our Junior Ranger Book.

• Pick up a free booklet at the information desk upon arrival.
• After completing the booklet, return it to the desk to receive a Junior Ranger badge.
• Alternatively, the booklet can be printed at home, completed, and then mailed to the monument to earn the badge.

It's a fun and engaging way for kids to learn about César Chávez and the farm worker movement while earning their own special recognition!
