Across the country, many National Wildlife Refuges, National Parks, and other outdoor locations offer Junior Ranger programs. Friends of Lower Suwannee & Cedar Keys NWRs is developing one for our Refuges. The program is designed for kids who like to explore forests, wetlands, and grasslands. They receive an age-appropriate activity book and guide to the Refuges and earn a badge upon completion. It is a great way to show families why every public land is important to preserve. Some families plan their vacations around collecting Junior Ranger badges! Learn more on our Junior Ranger page.  Happy with their badges  Map of refuges with Junior Ranger programs

I'm a seasonal employee of National Park Service, and one of my favorite job duties is checking Jr. Ranger activity books, helping children correct any errors, then swearing them in and awarding the badges. This is an excellent idea, and an excellent way of preparing youngsters to become stewards of our lands and oceans. Comments are closed.
