Junior Ranger

Come to the Visitor Center and ask a Park Ranger or Volunteer for a Junior Ranger booklet and pencil. Inside the book, cartoon rangers will take you exploring history throughout the entire park- from the visitor center, to the Hoskins Farmstead, and through the battlefield! Activities include mazes, designing monuments, scavenger hunts, comparing life then and now, and so much more!

This activity book is fun for the whole family-you are never too old to be a Junior Ranger! Future Junior Rangers can complete these activities either on their own, or as a team. To earn a badge, you must complete at least 6 out of the 10 total activities.

Junior Naturalist

Explore the natural world of the park and earn a Junior Naturalist badge! Stop at the Visitor Center to speak with a ranger and grab the handout. Use the National Park Service app to select the JR Naturalist program in the self-guided tour options.
