Junior Ranger

George Washington Carver National Monument is a fun place to visit! Plan to spend a couple of hours or a whole day learning about George Washington Carver, discovering nature, history, trying out the interactive exhibit area and becoming a junior ranger.

 

Summer Junior Rangers spend a morning in the Carver science classroom.
