Boys Life Annual Reading Contest

***MUST BE POSTMARKED BY 12/31/04***

Internet: http://www.boyslife.org/hi/index.html

Write a one-page report titled "The Best Book I Read This Year" and enter it in the 17th Annual Boys' Life Reading Contest.

The book can be fiction or nonfiction. But the report has to be in your own words - 500 words tops. Enter in one of these three age categories:

  • 8 years and younger,
  • 9 and 10 years old,
  • 11 years and older.

When they receive your report, you'll get a free patch like the red one shown above. {And, yes, the patch is a temporary insignia, so it can be worn on the Boy Scout uniform shirt, on the right pocket. Proudly display it there or anywhere!)

National Parks Jr. Ranger Program

Many National Parks offer visitors the opportunity to join the National Park Service Family as Junior Rangers. Interested students complete a series of activities during their park visit, share their answers with a park ranger, and receive an official Junior Ranger badge or patch and Junior Ranger certificate.

A list of parks offering Junior Ranger Programs appears below. Some of these parks have on-line Junior Ranger programs. These are noted with a gold star.
