Spend an action-packed day in the Arabia Mountain National Heritage Area as you earn your Junior Ranger Badge! We’ll explore an alien-like landscape filled with amazing plants and creatures. We’ll learn about the history and culture that surround us. We’ll work together to learn how to protect our parks. 

Our friends from AWARE, Davidson-Arabia Mountain Nature Preserve, Flat Rock Archives, Monastery of the Holy Spirit, and Panola Mountain State Park will guide you through some awe-inspiring activities. At the end of the day, our newest Junior Rangers will be sworn in and receive their badges together in a special ceremony. 

The event starts at 9:30 AM and ends 12:30 PM. Tickets are $5 for future junior rangers between 8 and 12 years old. Adults accompanying children are free. Ticket are available at juniorrangerday.bpt.me.
