The Junior Ranger Program is a fun way to learn more about our park and how you can help protect it - just like our park rangers! The Junior Ranger Program at the seashore is designed for kids ages 5 to 13.
To become an official Cape Hatteras National Seashore Junior Ranger during the summer program season (mid-June to Labor Day), you will need to:
- Attend two ranger programs - there is a program schedule in In The Park, the park newspaper, which you can get at any of our visitor centers
and/or
- Complete the Junior Ranger booklet (available at any of our visitor centers) appropriate for your age.
If you complete only the booklet, you will earn a Junior Ranger badge. If you do both the programs and the booklet, you will receive a Junior Ranger badge and patch!
If you are visiting the park during any other time period, you can earn a Junior Ranger badge by completing the booklet.
If you are not able to visit the park, you can still become a National Park Service Junior Ranger and learn about the jobs of park rangers by visiting . Complete all the activities and you can become a Web Ranger!

Did You Know?
The U.S.S. Monitor sank off Cape Hatteras during a storm in December 1862. The wreck's location was a mystery until 1973 when a research vessel found the ship 16 miles off the cape in 230 feet of water.
In 1975, the Monitor was named the nation’s first National Marine Sanctuary.
