If anyone gets stumped on a question, rangers will be around to happily help. Upon finishing the booklet, children will receive their certificate of completion signed by a Park Ranger, a “Junior Park Ranger” badge, a temporary tattoo, and a paper Junior Ranger hat.
 
“This weekend will be a great chance to get out and about with your family. Explore the park to see spring emerging on the prairie and finish fun activities to earn Junior Ranger badges!”
 
Remember, Homestead National Monument of America has an exciting schedule of events planned for 2014. Keep up with the latest information by following us on Twitter (HomesteadNM) and Facebook (HomesteadNM).
 
Homestead National Monument of America is a unit of the National Park Service located four miles west of Beatrice, Nebraska and 45 miles south of Lincoln.
