Have you ever dreamed of becoming a Park Ranger?
Do you really know what Park Rangers do?
Junior Rangers participating in this program will learn through exploration about the duties of a National Park Service Ranger. Each child will take part in some activities introducing them to the different types of positions held by park rangers including interpretation, administration, law enforcement, wild land fire, and maintenance. The Junior Rangers will view a video with some of the over 390 National Parks throughout the United States. Participants will also learn about the history and mission of the National Park Service.

Did You Know?
During the Civil War, 632 Union dead were buried in the heart of the 1781 battlefield. In 1866 this cemetery became a national cemetery. Within a 50 mile radius, the remains of over 1500 Union soldiers were disinterred from their war burials and honorably placed in the Yorktown National Cemetery.
