Mini Rangers (Deception Pass)

There are currently no future events scheduled.
Join us for our first summer of Mini Ranger programs, inspired by our annual Family in Nature programs. As a group, explore Deception Pass State Park’s amazing wildlife and unique collection of forest and marine habitats.

We are excited to invite families with children 1 to 5-years-old to join staff for a fun and highly interactive outdoor adventure to learn all about different aspects of nature around Deception Pass State Park. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
