For families with children ranging in age from 4 - 14, there is a wonderful and fun program called the Junior Ranger program. Be sure to get your children a packet to help them become a Junior Ranger. It's free of charge and geared to different age groups. Ages 4-7 can earn the Raven Award; ages 8-10 the Coyote Award; and ages 11- on up the Scorpion Award. And there is even a special award for those only given to those who make it to Phantom Ranch that's called the Phantom Rattler!

The Junior Ranger badges are free once the child completes the activites included in the booklet and presents them to a ranger
