Description
It’s double the junior ranger fun! Two parks, each with their own junior ranger program, are hosting a fun-filled Junior Ranger Day together on Saturday, April 16, from 10:30 am to 2:00 pm at Sacajawea Historical State Park at 2503 Sacajawea Park Rd in Pasco, Washington.
Manhattan Project National Historical Park and Sacajawea Historical State Park are inviting children of all ages to become junior rangers of each park and earn a special patch or pin for Junior Ranger Day. There will be fun activities like a scavenger hunt, activity sheets, and an interactive demo that shows how watersheds works. There will also be ranger-led nature hikes at 12:00 pm and 1:00 pm. Each park will provide junior ranger booklets that help children learn how to “Explore, Learn, and Protect” their state and national parks.
Activities are weather dependent so please check our Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/ManhattanProjectNPS for updates on the day of the event. For questions, please email e-mail us

Sacajawea Historical State Park is a Washington State Park at the confluence of the Snake and Columbia rivers where the Lewis and Clark expedition camped. The state park bears the name of Sacagawea, a Shoshone woman who helped the expedition.
Manhattan Project National Historical Park interprets one of the most transformative events of the 20th that ultimately ushered in the nuclear age with the development of the world’s first atomic bombs.
