Three Jr. Ranger Days Remain at George Rogers National Historic Park

Vincennes- With the first Junior Ranger Day postponed due to weather, there are still three Saturday kids programs scheduled for the rest of summer and fall.
  • Natural Resource Day will be from 1 to 4 pm on August 26. Although set aside as a historical park in 1966, the George Rogers Clark National Historical Park still provides a green space to the community. Kids will be able to connect with the natural resources with activities like track molds, owl pellet dissection, water testing, and tree identification.
  • Three Forts Day has been rescheduled for September 9 from 11 am to 4 pm. Learn how kids lived in Vincennes from the early French, American Revolution, and War of 1812 periods. Musket demonstrations will also be held.
  • Astronomy Night is October 21 from 6:30 to 9:30 pm for kids of all ages. Activities, games, and stargazing will be part of the fun for all ages. Kids can earn the Night Explorer patch and preview programs for the 2024 Solar Eclipse.

Kids between ages 5 and 14, will receive a Junior Ranger patch for attending their first program or a commemorative badge for their second program.
