Teen Ranger
The Teen Ranger Program offers young teens (ages 12-15) the opportunity to gain pre-workplace experiences outdoors while building friendships and having fun!
ERCA’s certified staff will guide Teen Rangers through hands-on experiences. The program will take place at four different conservation areas on four consecutive Tuesdays in the month of August. Program graduates will have an increased appreciation for the natural world and people around them; better team-building skills; and greater awareness of themselves and their abilities.
