The Rangers and volunteers at Canaveral National Seashore invite children, ages 6 to 12, and their parents to visit the Park. Join us for a Junior Ranger program, bring a picnic lunch, and then spend the day at the beach. The programs are designed to show children that Canaveral National Seashore is a special place.
Programs take place in both districts of the park.
Programs may be canceled when shuttle launch activities close the South District of the seashore. Children attending park programs must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. To be Junior Rangers children must attend at least three different programs, pick up a bag of trash from the beach. They must do a project of their own choosing that shows what they have learned during the programs. Children will receive a booklet in which to log their activities, a Junior Ranger certificate and a colorful patch.
