National Kids to Parks Day

Explore the park by checking out discovery gear during the given time frame to complete a special single day Junior Ranger task list and earn a self-guided Junior Ranger patch. This opportunity is designed for families with children and will provide them with a unique self-paced expedition of the park's Interpretive Area while having the chance to interact with the park using the provided discovery gear including butterfly nets, binoculars, and more! Gear can be checked out up to 30 minutes before the end of the time frame. All gear must be returned intact no later than 15 minutes after the end of the time frame. Patches available while supplies last. 

We strive to make our programming and special event opportunities accessible and inclusive to all. If you have an accessibility or inclusivity concern, please reach out to our front office to speak with a ranger or contact us through the park email address. We will attempt to accommodate all individuals or families for their unique circumstances and can do so best with advanced communication.
