Junior Park Ranger Badge

Did you know that many national parks have special programs for young people ages 7 to 11 that help them understand more about their local parks and how they can help protect these resources? These programs are called Junior Ranger programs.

Would you like to help take care of your National Parks and learn more about the special things at the park you are visiting?

Ask a ranger at for a free Junior Ranger workbook when you arrive at Russell Cave.  Complete the activities during your visit, and receive an official Russell Cave certificate and Junior Ranger Badge!

You can collect Junior Ranger badges from almost every park you visit.
