Why Yes, I Am a Junior Park Ranger!
My friend Evan has be sworn in as a Junior Park Ranger (JPR) in several locations across the country. This just means that when he goes to a National Park or historic site or somewhere where there are park rangers (and they have the JPR program), he completes a series of tasks so that he can earn a Park Ranger badge. For his 6th birthday this year, Evan took his friends to the Arch so that they could become JPR's too. First, we made t-shirts to mark the occasion. Then, we rode the Metrolink to the Arch, which was a lot of fun. Then, we got our JPR booklets and set out to earn our badges. As you can see, we all completed the program and were sworn in as official Rangers.

I am so proud of you Willa for your achievement. Did you know that you are the first Certified Junior Park Ranger in our family? Keep on getting those certificates.
WoW, Willa! You made a big accomplishment! Maybe when you go to Yellowstone Park you will be able to show one of their rangers your certificate! Maybe there is something you can do at Yellowstone to earn another certificate!!! What a great idea to do for a birthday party! I can tell by your smile, and serious look, that you had fun and liked earning you JPR certificate! Love U, Gramma Debbie
