More about the Program
Welcome to Greenwich Point! The Point is a wonderful place and one of our town’s most visited parks. It offers a variety of activities for the whole family including the opportunity to see and learn about a variety of natural habitats. The Junior Ranger Program is designed to help you do this. What is a Junior Ranger? A Junior Ranger is:
…an Adventurer
…a Learner
…a Seeker
…a Discoverer
…a Care-taker

A Junior Ranger could be…YOU!

  • Take the Junior Ranger Pledge (see last page).
