Programs
Lil’ Ranger Badge
Park Rangers will give these special badges to our young park visitors when we see them being good park stewards and helping enforce park rules. Picking up trash or walking your dog on a leash are just a few things you could do to keep your park safe and fun while earning a Lil' Ranger Badge.
Community Involvement
Our Park Rangers are actively involved in the park communities. You may see them meeting different school groups to help educate them on the Do's and Don'ts of Dallas Parks. You can also find our Park Rangers at various community events helping to teach citizens how to stay safe while enjoying a family day at the park!
