(3258 x 3000) What is a Junior Ranger?
Junior Rangers help to preserve National Parks; they learn about the Grand Canyon, have fun, and are our representatives to their friends, families, and schoolmates back home. Junior Rangers spread their new knowledge about Parks and continue to use good environmental practices.
How can you become a Junior Ranger?
At Grand Canyon, there are now five ways for you to complete the Junior Ranger requirements and be sworn in as a Grand Canyon National Park Junior Ranger. All of our Junior Ranger programs are free of charge.
